    Abstract : Many studies have previously been done on moisture-induced strains in wood. An in- finitesimal/engineering strain model has been used for most of these studies, which is often an accurate approximation for small rotations. However, if large deformations oc- cur, then fictive strains are obtained resulting from the simplified engineering strain. READ MORE
