Medium density fiberboard (MDF) is an industrial product manufactured from lignocellulosic fibers. It has homogeneity, dimensional stability, and mechanical strength compared with solid wood. Milling is a machining method ...

Illegal logging and associated trade aggravate the over-exploitation of Swietenia species, of which S. macrophylla King, S. mahagoni (L.) Jacq, and S. humilis Zucc. have been listed in Convention on International Trade in ...

This study presents a multiobjective optimization algorithm that is termed memetic algorithm with compromise search (MACS). This algorithm, proposed by the authors, combines genetic evolution with local search, in the same ...

Reforestation wood is interesting for construction, due to its potential as material source for manufacturing. For this purpose, the Eucalyptus genus has resulted in a better characterization of the material properties. ...

Numerous factors influencing the surface quality of wood after machining, among them we highlight the machining parameters and the properties of the wood. In the analysis of the influence of these factors on machining and ...

Main conclusion Machine-learning approaches (MLAs) for DNA barcoding outperform distance- and tree-based methods on identification accuracy and cost-effectiveness to arrive at species-level identification of wood. DNA ...

Availability of and access to wood identification expertise or technology is a critical component for the design and implementation of practical, enforceable strategies for effective promotion, monitoring and incentivisation ...
