DEVELOPMENT OF A TECHNIQUE TO DETERMINE THE 3D ELASTICITY TENSOR OF WOOD AS APPLIED TO DRYING STRESS MODELING

The objective of this study was to develop an accurate and simple method for measuring the engineering coefficients of the 3D elasticity tensor of wood. A method using a semi-ring extensometer (SRE) and a compression specimen (6-specimen technique) is proposed. The SRE is made of a semi-ring stainle...
