Effects of Moisture Content and Fiber Proportion on Stress Wave Velocity in Cathay Poplar (Populus cathayana) Wood

Changes in longitudinal stress wave velocity measured during the drying process of Cathay poplar (Populus cathayana) wood at different moisture contents were investigated. The test was performed at five different positions from bark to pith on each part. Five bars, cut successively from bark to pith...
