Project: Structure-property relations of wood fibres: 3D characterization and modelling

The primarily objective of WoodFibre3D is to apply and combine a set of advanced state-of-theart 3D characterisation facilities to gain increased fundamental competence on the fibre structures at cell-/fibre-/wood-structure level. This competence will be combined with modelling expertise to understand and predict the mechanical properties of the wood fibres and how they can be utilised as reinforcements in composite applications.
