Trends in the design and creation of new materials

The objective of my research is to examine the influence of densified wood in combination with native wood on its mechanical properties such as moduls of elasticity, bending strength, limit of proportionality, bendability coefficient and tensile-shear strength of glued line. The examined woods are Europen beech (Fagus Sylvatica L.) and Aspen (Populus tramula L.). The tests were carried out on speciemens with different thickness. The densification by 10% and 20% was performed. For the glued joint polyurethane adhesive and polyvinylacetate glue were used. The thesis includes simulation of the properties, their computer program tetsing, and the comparsion with the values obtained from real measurement. The purpose of this part of thesis is to achieve a simulation that will replace laboratory tests or disprove this method of scientific research and deepen our knowledge of proceses occuring during the pursued way of stress
