    Cluster theory for water sorption in wood (1992)
    Springer
    Wood science and technology 26 (1992), S. 83-99 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-5225

    Notes: Summary A review of water interaction in cellulosic-systems, particularly wood, is presented. Discussed are the different states of water in these systems according to Nuclear Magnetic Resonance results, the BET, Dent, and Hailwood and Horrobin sorption isotherm models. The discussion includes details of water structure, and, conformational analysis of cellulose crystals and amorphous cellulose. The water cluster theory is used to more adequately explain the sigmoid curve of the wood isotherm.

    Fundamentals of flakeboard manufacture: wood-moisture relationships (1991)
    Springer
    Wood science and technology 25 (1991), S. 57-71

    Notes: Summary A procedure is presented to estimate the relative vapor pressure, equilibrium moisture content, average flake temperature, and average flake moisture content in a flakeboard mat during hot-pressing. This method is based on measurements of temperature and total gas pressure in the mat during hot-pressing. A heat and mass transfer model was adapted from the literature to predict the temperature and moisture content inside an individual flake. Significant moisture gradients are predicted to develop within flakes. Convective heat transfer appears to control the change of moisture content within a flake. Thermodynamic equilibrium between the gas phase and the wood component is not achieved during hot-pressing.

    WBCSim: A Prototype Problem Solving Environment for Wood-Based Composites Simulations (1999)
    Springer
    Engineering with computers 15 (1999), S. 198-210 
    Details
    ISSN: 1435-5663
    Keywords: Key words. Computer model; Problem solving environment; Visualization; Wood-based composite materials
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Computer Science , Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics , Technology
    Notes: Abstract. This paper describes a computing environment named WBCSim that is intended to increase the productivity of wood scientists conducting research on wood-based composite materials. WBCSim integrates Fortran 77-based simulation codes with a graphical front end, an optimization tool, and a visualization tool. WBCSim serves as a prototype for the design, construction and evaluation of larger scale problem solving (computing) environments. Several different wood-based composite material simulations are supported. A detailed description of the prototype’s software architecture and a typical scenario of use are presented. The system converts output from the simulations to the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) for visualizing simulation results.

    Transient moisture effects in materials (1991)
    Springer
    Journal of materials science 26 (1991), S. 5113-5126 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-4803
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics
    Notes: Abstract The paper reviews transient moisture effects in various materials with emphasis on their viscoelastic properties and durability. The first part of the review is dedicated to the phenomenological aspects of the effects in materials such as whole wood, plywood, particleboard, fibreboard, paper, natural and synthetic fibres and composite materials. Creep, creep recovery, dynamic response and failure as influenced by various transient moisture conditions are discussed in relation to the materials system, the extent and rate of moisture change, loading modes, temperature levels, specimen sizes, type of solvent and preventive measures. The second part is devoted to the discussion of mechanistic models. Explanations of the phenomenon from a molecular and materials standpoint are assessed, compared and discussed in depth so that one can gain deeper insight into the phenomenon as discussed in the first part. The main mechanisms discussed include: (i) hydrogen bonding, (ii) slip planes and (iii) crystallite slippage and rotation.

    Computer simulation of a rotary dryer. Part II: Heat and Mass Transfer (1986)

    Notes: A computer model of a single-pass, rotary-drum dryer with or without a centerfill flighting section, describes the drying behavior of wood particles within the drum. This part of a two-part study examines heat and mass transfer, which are shown to be partly dependent on the pattern of particle flow and on retention time. Comparison of simulation results with drying data based on moisture content of outlet particles from a large-scale rotary dryer was favorable, with a root mean square error of 22.2%.

    Notes: A computer model of a single-pass, rotary-drum dryer with or without a center-fill flighting section, describes the drying behavior of wood particles within the drum. This part of a two-part study examines retention time; the second part incorporates heat and mass transfer for the complete drying model. Simulation results with retention time data from a large-scale rotary dryer showed a favorable comparison, with a root mean square error of 14.2%.
