1. Elasticity of Cellulose Nanofibril Materials
Sammanfattning : The demand for renewable load-carrying materials is increasing with increasing environmental awareness. Alternative sources for materials manufacturing and design have to be investigated in order to replace the non-biodegradable materials. LÄS MER
2. Creep aspects of softwood from the cell-wall level to structures
Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the intricate mechanical behaviour of natural materials, with a particular focus on wood. Despite millennia of use, understanding the mechanical behaviour of wood materials remains challenging due to their complex microstructures. LÄS MER
3. Moisture-Induced Strains and Stresses in Wood
Sammanfattning : To design safe, reliable and durable timber structures subjected to varying natural outdoor or indoor climates, understanding the long-term behavior of wood when mechanically loaded or restrained to deform is crucial. The present thesis focuses on the numerical modeling of the long-term mechanical behavior of wood. LÄS MER
4. Biomechanical Analysis of Stress and Stiffness of New Load-Bearing Implants
Sammanfattning : Medical implants are essential products for saving lives and improving life quality. Nowadays, the demand for implants, especially biocompatible and personalized ones, is increasing rapidly to deal with factors like congenital malformations, aging, and increasing prevalence of cancer.

5. Structure and Mechanical Behaviour of Wood-Fibre Composites
Sammanfattning : Wood fibres have several advantages compared to man-made synthetic fibres: they have high specific stiffness, are renewable, relatively inexpensive, available in industrial quantities and biodegradable. However, to increase and diversify their utilisation, it is necessary to increase the understanding on what controls their mechanical properties. LÄS MER
