  1. 1. Identification of Fibers in Micro-CT Images of Paperboard Using Deep Learning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : David Rydgård; [2023]
    Keywords : Fiber networks; Paperboard mechanics; Deep learning; Tomography; Image analysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project explores the possibility of using deep learning to segment individual fibers in three-dimensional tomography images of paperboard fiber networks. We test a method which has previously been used to segment fibers in images of glass fiber reinforced polymers. READ MORE

  3. 2. Start-up of a Kistler 9129AA dynamometer on a custom rotation machine and investigation of its potential eligibility for cutting force measurement in wood

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Träteknik

    Author : Frank Schleicher; [2023]
    Keywords : dynamometer; cutting forces in wood; rotation machine; wood cutting;

    Abstract : In the manufacturing industry, the mechanics of metal-cutting is well-understood and used to improve cutting processes. The mechanics of wood-cutting are still in its early stages and further research is required. READ MORE

  4. 3. Characterization methodology to assess the mechanical properties of delignified birch/PMMA transparent wood biocomposites

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Nicolò Arcieri; [2022]
    Keywords : Transparent wood; mechanical properties; fracture toughness; in situ experiments; cohesive zone model; Transparent trä; mekaniska egenskaper; brottsstyrka; in situ-experiment; modell för kohesionszonen;

    Abstract : Transparent trä biokompositer (TW) är en ny attraktiv klass av biokomposit. De är uppbyggda av delignifierat trä som impregnerats med en polymer med matchande brytningsindexet.  TW kan skräddarsys för inom ett brett spektrum av funktionella, optiska och mekaniska egenskaper.

  5. 4. The influence of post-buckling damage on the tensile properties of single wood pulp fibers

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Raphael Andreolli; [2021]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; single fiber testing; wood pulp fibers; post-buckling damage; experiments; development of testing methods; tensile properties; tensile stiffness; tensile strength; Hållfasthetslära; enskild fiber testning; pappersmassa fiber; skada efter knäckning; experiment; utveckling av testutrustning; dragegenskaper; dragstyvhet; draghållfasthet;

    Abstract : The rapid growth of plastic waste from food packaging around the world demands renewable substitutes, such as natural fibers and biocomposites. Wood fibers are natural fibers extracted from trees and are commonly used in packaging. READ MORE

  6. 5. FE-Modelling of a Joint for Cross-Laminated Timber

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknik

    Author : Linus Ekhagen; [2021]
    Keywords : cross-laminated timber; fe-modelling; continuum damage mechanics; fracture; korslimmat trä; fe modellering; skademekanik; brott;

    Abstract : Woodbe Engineering AB is a freshly started company that has developed a new type of joint for cross-laminated timber (CLT). The joint does not include any metallic fasteners, which improves sustainability, the ergonomics for the workers and time efficiency. READ MORE
