Deformation Behavior of Natural Wood Having Hierarchical Structure Under A Compression State
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 March 2011
Abstract
A large deformation of bulk wood using slipping between the wood cells has been found just like a plastic deformation generated by slip band in metallic materials. This phenomenon is caused by the hierarchical structure of the wood cell, and the intercellular layer becomes selectively softened in moistened states of wood. In such conditions, bulk wood subject to compression at elevated temperatures can easily be deformed perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cells by shear flow stress after being collapsed.
