Wood-water interactions are central to the utilization of wood in our society since water
affects many important characteristics of wood. This topic has been investigated for more …

Wood is a hygroscopic material that absorbs and desorbs water to equilibrate to the ambient
climate. Within material science, the moisture range from 0 to about 95–98% relative …

Accurate characterisation of the three-dimensional (3D) fracture network of coal is of vital
significance to enhancing coal seam permeability during simultaneous extraction of deep …

Water plays a central role in wood research, since it affects all material properties relevant to
the performance of wood materials. Therefore, experimental techniques for characterising …

Liquid water uptake in an orthotropic, cellular, hierarchical and natural material namely
wood is investigated using neutron radiography. During water uptake in wood, liquid does …

Wood is a porous, hygroscopic material that can take up water both within cell walls (cell-
wall water) and in the macrovoid structure (capillary water). Therefore, moisture transport in …

This review summarizes the development of the experimental technique and analytical
method for using TD-NMR to study wood-water interactions in recent years. We briefly …

Water inside hygroscopic porous media such as plantlike systems can be found either freely
penetrating in capillaries or absorbed into the solid phase (bound water). Here we …

A title seldom gives exhaustive information about the content it precedes. Consequently, we
sometimes find ourselves disappointed when we realize that a paper is not about what we …

Imbibition in poplar wood is studied from macroscopic measurements (mass and
deformation) along with magnetic resonance imaging experiments allowing to observe …
