Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTree Volume Prediction Model of Cupressus lusitanica Species: in North-Western Highlands of EthiopiaYishak Adgo Kassie, Abebaw Alene YallewA significant basis of raw materials for the forest products industry is provided by Cupressus lusitanica, one of the commercial timber tree species found in the forest. Accurate tree and stand volume development models are necessary for intensive forest management to yield timber. The goal of this study was to develop and validate volume equations for Cupressus lusitanica tree species … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2025 · 5,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Physical-Hydrical Behavior of Massouhoin Coconut Tree Wood in TogoEssey Agbédidi Kossi, Amey Bollanigni Kossi et al.Wood is a very complex and anisotropic material whose properties are significantly influenced by its age and plantation areas. The purpose of this study is to determine the density distribution model of COCOS NUCIFERA (coconut tree) wood from Togo and to analyze its water behavior of physical and water properties 932 wood specimens are selected from a tree trunk from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2024 · 8,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical Properties of Concrete Including Wood Shavings as Fine AggregatesAshraf A. M. Fadiel, Taher Abu-LebdehResidual and end-life products are a major hazard on the environment. Many researchers have considered waste as partial replacement of some construction materials to reduce their environmental and ecological problems. This kind of practices can be an important option for the protection of the environment. Wood shavings and saw dust are byproduct of the lumber industry. They are made from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2021 · 7,040 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBamboo Lightweight Shear Walls: Modeling and Identification of Sheathing-to-Framing Connections for Seismic Response AnalysisGiorgia Di Gangi, Cristoforo Demartino, Giuseppe QuarantaThe need for enhancing the sustainability of civil constructions has originated an increasing interest in the use of engineered bamboo-based products within the building sector. Nonetheless, while the static response of bamboo-made structures has been largely investigated, experimental and numerical researches concerning the response under dynamic loads are limited. Therefore, the present work deals with the assessment of the seismic … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 16 Jun 2020 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrengthening of Laminated Glass Windows against Windborne Debris ImpactXihong Zhang, Qingfei Meng, Chiara Bedon, Piotr W. SielickiThis paper presents numerical modelling to study potential mitigation methods to improve the impact resistance performance of laminated glass windows against timber windborne debris impact. A detailed numerical model of laminated glass window is generated and validated with laboratory impact tests. The influence of supporting frames made of different stiffness materials is examined. Numerical simulation shows that boundary condition has … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 16 Nov 2020 · 6,883 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Strategic Study on the Environmental Impacts of Wind Turbine Blade Materials, their Improvements, Economics and End-Life-OptionsOjshwi Prakash, Godwin Glivin, N. Kalaiselvan, V. MariappanWind energy is a great alternative to solar energy (During monsoon) along with conventional non-renewable energy sources and has a potential market growing exponentially. Modern 3 Blade HAWTs are most dominant in the market and have high efficiency. Blades are 15 to 20% of the cost of the wind turbine unit and also exposed to the environment. Therefore it is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Nov 2020 · 8,366 accessesView PDFCite
