1. Birch Stem and Wood Traits in Genetic and Silviculture Trials in Southern Sweden
Sammanfattning : Swedish tree species of birch (silver: Betula pendula and downy: B. pubescens) are often neglected during forest management activities, resulting in low value logs. This thesis investigated birch stem characteristics and wood properties important for solid wood products, in genetics and management trials in southern Sweden. LÄS MER
2. Mechanical processing for improved products made from Swedish hardwood
Sammanfattning : Swedish hardwood is today used in the energy, pulp and mechanical hardwood industries. Only very small volumes of Swedish hardwood are, however, consumed by the mechanical industry that normally pays the highest timber price. LÄS MER
3. Micromechanics of softwoods in the transverse plane : effects on cell and annual ring scales
Sammanfattning : Transverse mechanical properties of wood are important in many practial applications and an interesting scientific subject. A very low transverse shear modulus has been identified in spruce, which causes large strain concentrations in wood structures. LÄS MER
4. Heterologous expression, characterization and applications of carbohydrate active enzymes and binding modules
Sammanfattning : Wood and wood products are of great economical and environmental importance, both in Sweden and globally. Biotechnology can be used both for achieving raw material of improved quality and for industrial processes such as biobleaching. LÄS MER
5. Characterisation of wood-fibre—based materials using image analysis
Sammanfattning : Wood fibres are the main constituent of paper and are also used to alter properties of plastics in wood-fibre—based composite materials. The manufacturing of these materials involves numerous parameters that determine the quality of the products. LÄS MER
