Parameter influence on moisture induced eigen-stresses in timber
(2010) In European Journal of Wood and Wood Products 68(4). p.397-406- Abstract
- Moisture induced stress in timber is dependant on many factors. The driving force behind is the moisture variation in the surrounding air which causes induced stress due to restraint of hygro-expansion within timber elements (this can to some extent be seen analogous to thermally induced stress in steel). Today's computational power together with advanced constitutive models offers aaEuro-aEuro-valuable tool towards understanding and determining moisture actions on timber. However, it seems that the issue concerning uncertainties of the input parameters is seldom addressed. This paper presents results on how various factors affect the resulting moisture induced stress by aaEuro-aEuro-parametric study of the input values. A small numerical... (More)
