  1. 21. Multiphase continuum modeling of wood : A hybrid mixture theory approach

    Författare :Winston Mmari; Björn Johannesson; Lynn Schreyer; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Moisture transport; Coupled heat and moisture; Over-hygroscopic; Hybrid mixture theory; Mixture theory; Swelling; Hygro-mechanical; Non-linear elasticity; Large deformation; Phase field crack model; Anisotropic cracking; FEM; Numerical model; Norway spruce; Wood; Porous media; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Wood has been used as a construction material for a very long time. The development of efficient industrial production processes of wood has expanded the use of the material with the introduction of new products, such as engineered wood products. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Modelling of temperature, moisture and stresses in young concrete

    Författare :Jan-Erik Jonasson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The present study consists of three areas, namely modelling of- (1) temperature, (2) moisture state, and (3) stresses in young concrete. The derivation of models, examination of material data, and development of computer programs have progressed differently in these areas. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Resistance of Clay Brick Masonry Façades to Wind-Driven Rain : Repointing of Eroded Mortar Joints

    Författare :Mohammad Kahangi; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; clay brick masonry façade; wind-driven rain; water absorption; water penetration; damp patches;

    Sammanfattning : Clay brick masonry façades are commonly used due to their high-performance durability. However, exposure to climate agents such as wind-driven rain (WDR), freeze-thaw cycles, and wind abrasion cause deterioration of masonry façades over time. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Coated Norway Spruce : Influence of Wood Characteristics on Water Sorption and Coating Durability

    Författare :Tinh Sjökvist; Åsa Blom; Carsten Mai; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Heartwood; Sapwood; Wood extractives; Moisture content; Paint; Alkyd; Acrylic; Linseed oil; Calcimine paint; Mould; Fungi; Algae; Weathering; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Wood used outdoors is often degraded and discoloured by microorganisms as a natural part of its life cycle, particularly when exposed to high levels of moisture for prolonged times. In this case, the application of a coating (i.e. paint) is an option for increasing the service life of the wood. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Wood chips for kraft and sulfite pulping : evaluation of novel forest-industrial drum-chipping technology

    Författare :Jessica Gard Timmerfors; Leif J. Jönsson; David Blomberg; Sören Östlund; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood chip; drum chipper; impregnation; pulping; sulfite process; kraft process; Scots pine; Norway spruce; heartwood; frozen wood; moisture content;

    Sammanfattning : Wood chipping and the supply of high-quality wood chips are of critical importance for most forest-industrial processes. The quality of wood chips affects product yield, product quality, and processability. LÄS MER
