The Effect of Wood Knot as a Defect on Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) and Damping Correlation

This research was carried out to investigate the influence of knots on modulus of elasticity and on damping factor of vibration. Rectangular bars from Cupressus arizonica wood were used. Five individual trees were selected, and samples of 2*2*36 cm were cut and conditioned at 21C and 65% relative hu...
