AI-Based Wood Failure Detection and Shear Strength Prediction in Adhesive Bonding of Cross-Laminated Timber
Abasali Masoumi, Brian H Bond, Daniel P Hindman
A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was trained to quantify WFP from bondline images, while an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and a hybrid CNN–Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) model were developed to predict shear strength.
Sensor Applications in Mass Timber Buildings: A Comprehensive Review
Behrad Hourfar, George Berghorn, Mohammad Rajaian Hoonejani, M. G. Matt Syal
This study presents a systematic review of sensor-based monitoring applications in mass timber buildings through a PRISMA- guided literature review combined with scientometric and thematic analyses. for 64 publications published between 2015 and 2025.
Exploring the Impact of Knots in White Pine on Consumer Preference and Pricing
Aayusha Chapagain, Paul Crovella
greater understanding of consumer preferences for wood with defects can potentially enhance utilization while still meeting performance requirements. A previous study (Chapagain & Crovella, 2025) examined physiological responses, creativity, concentration, and psychological reactions to wood with and without defects.
