Estimating lumber properties with acoustic-based technologies—Part 1: Modeling acoustic (stress) wave behavior in clear wood and lumber
Open accessAbstract
This research article summarizes results from Part 1 of a study designed to examine using advanced signal processing techniques with acoustic-based lumber assessment technologies to evaluate the MOE, ultimate tension stress (UTS), and MOR of structural lumber. In Part 1 of this research article, a mathematical model of acoustic wave behavior in an idealized specimen is derived using fundamental mechanics. Published information on the physical and mechanical properties of clear, defect-free wood is input into the model to examine acoustic wave behavior. Wave behavior is then examined experimentally in a series of wood specimens. Observed wave behavior in the clear wood specimens, in both time and frequency domains, closely resembles idealized wave behavior. In Part 2 of this research article, predictions from the model are used to improve estimation of the UTS of wood specimens.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
