Bending Stiffness of Hybrid Wood-Metal Composite Beams: An Experimentally Validated Numerical Model

This paper presents an experimentally validated model for the computational analysis of metal-reinforced wooden composites. The model can be used in both research and in industry to effectively estimate how much a certain composite design improves the bending stiffness and strength of a hybrid metal...
