Nondestructive Testing of Wood Defects based on Stress Wave Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
The wood samples were tested by the technique of stress wave, and the testing results were analyzed by using the statistic software of SPSS. The results showed that the length, density and knots of wood, the sizes of holes and numbers of holes have significant influence on propagation parameters and dynamic modulus of elasticity. Under the same specifications, the propagation time of the stress wave was longer in the wood with holes than the perfect wood samples, and the time become longer with the increasing the sizes and numbers of holes. The studying results of this paper will provide a sound background for the application of stress-wave technique in detecting the inner defects of wood products and other wooden structures.

Assessing the flexural strength changes in decayed wood of Iranian beech (Fagus orientalis) by using of nondestructive stress wave method
The aim of this study was to evaluate sound and decayed wood of Iranianbeech (Fagus orientalis) with a nondestructive stress wave method. Wood samples,with dimensions of 9 by 19 by 200 mm were decayed in laboratory soil-bed tests,based on European pre-standard ENV-807. The decay was evaluated by measuringbending dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOEd) and longitudinal dynamicmodulus of elasticity ...

متن کاملLow-cost Ultrasonic Probe to Assess Wood Defects and Parameters
Wood is a natural material that due to its properties has been used for years in many applications such as construction and furniture industries. Being a natural material it is prone to defects which must be detected, preferably during the early stage of product production. Testing of wood pieces, to detect defects or to determine some of its properties, can be made using two types of technique...
