Abstract:Non-destructive testing was used to predict the static modulus of elasticity (MOES) of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) timber from the northeast of Spain. Three vibration tests were performed, longitudinal, flatwise and edgewise, to obtain the dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOEdyn) based on the fundamental resonant frequencies. The MOEdyn was additionally obtained from ultrasound tests. Measurements of different features were performed of the various samples, which were also subjected to a bending test to find t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
