Validation of ultrasonic velocity estimates of wood properties in discs of radiata pine
Abstract Background Measurement of microfibril angle (MFA) in the S2 layer of the cell walls of wood using speed of sound in wood has become a common way to estimate wood stiffness and stability. Measurements across the radius of a disc can be critical, but sonic testing needs to be validated agains...
