Modeling the Transient Effects during the Hot-Pressing of Wood-Based Composites

A numerical model based on fundamental engineering principles was developed and validated to establish a relationship between process parameters and the final properties of woodbased composite boards. The model simulates the mat formation, then compresses the reconstituted mat to its final thickness...
