The primary objective of this work was to study one aspect of improving timber quality. The aim of this paper is to supplement previously published results in Wood Science and Technology. Bending strength and stiffness of Norway spruce (Picea abies) from three stands in southern Sweden, two ...
“There is no similarity in the action which shot and shells are designed to exert on timber. The shot is to pierce and separate the wood by the force of penetration alone, crushing and rending the fibres, tearing asunder the several parts bolted together, and driving off splinters large and...
This paper is a review that focuses on synthesis and analysis of studies that have investigated the influence of fertilization on properties of differentPinusspecies under intensive management. The deliberate focus has been onPinusspecies because they are usually managed to provide timber for structural ...

Through the use of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) mapping it is possible to establish the genetic basis of phenotypic trait variation. Our GWAS study presents the first such effort in Norway spruce (Picea abies (L). Karst.) for the traits related
Flat-sawn timbers with dimensions of 3600 mm × 136 mm × 26 mm and an average density of 396 kg/m3 were prepared from conventionally kiln-dried wood with an average moisture content of 14%. Forty-five timbers without visible defects were chosen for the present experiment, and each timber ...

As a green material, wood is widely used in building decoration, railway construction, and other fields. However, the wood itself has inherent defects of being easy to absorb water and deform, rot, and decrease in strength. The physical and mechanical st
