Predicting the strength of branch attachments is important for arborists and urban foresters
because branch failure can cause damage and injuries. Previous studies have shown that the …

Because of the abundant forests of the world, wood is one of the most common materials
found in historic buildings. Wood is relatively easy to fabricate into beams, columns, and roof …

The time-temperature superposition principle was used to develop long-term compression
creep and recovery models for southern pine exposed to constant environmental conditions …

The mathematical modeling of glued‐laminated (glulam) timber beams is greatly simplified
by considering the material to be isotropic in the plane of the cross section. In this paper, the …

Displacement beneath the bolts in multiple-bolted wood connections was studied using digital
image correlation. This method combines digital image analysis and image correlation to …

The fundamental optical absorption and photoconductivity of single crystals of tellurium has
been investigated. Tellurium crystals exhibit dichroism in the infrared, ie, the absorption …

Fracture mechanics, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and fluorescence microscopy
were used to evaluate the performance and durability of three poly[(vinyl acetate)-co-N-…

Current design methodologies for timber frame structures do not formally incorporate the
structural benefits of structural insulated panels (SIPs) as diaphragm elements, which contribute …

The longitudinal, free hygroscopic expansion coefficients and the elastic recovery after
constrained in-plane swelling were experimentally determined for commercial plywood and …
