Micromechanical Properties of Spruce Tissues Using Static Nanoindentation and Modulus Mapping

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper discusses characterization of physical and mechanical properties of tissues of Norway spruce. Cell wall is composed of several layers, which is, due to their small size, difficult to characterize. For this reason, the work uses a combination of methods, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and nanoindentation. AFM is used to determine the topography of samples and nanoindentation to determine micromechanical properties of wood tissues. Prepared samples of glue laminated timber were tested by quasi-static and dynamic nanoindentation (modulus mapping technique) method.
