Effects of the wood species, number of teeth, and adhesive type were studied relative to the moment capacities of box joints under tension and compression loadings, which is commonly used in case type solid wood furniture. ...

Limited number of papers describe the practical use of auxetics in the wood and furniture sector. Only one paper describes the auxetic nails. None of them analyzed the impact of using auxetics on the strength of furniture ...

Tests were carried out to investigate the cyclic loading performance of chairs constructed of Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris) and Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis). Totally, 30 real size chairs were constructed and assembled ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of wood species, heat treatment, adhesive type and joint technique on shear force capacity of H-type furniture joints. For this purpose, an experimental design that ...

In this study, the aim was to optimize the cross-sectional geometry of auxetic dowels for furniture joints. For this purpose, two different sizes of auxetic dowels were chosen, one for frame- and the other for panel-type ...

Tests were carried out to develop and manufacture various types of auxetic dowels using 3D printing technology. These dowels were then used to connect L-type corner joint specimens for case furniture, and their strength ...

The objective of this study was to develop predictive expressions for estimating the withdrawal force capacity of various size of beech (Fagus orientalis) dowels from medium density fiberboard (MDF) and particleboard (PB). ...

This study aimed to assess the cyclic load capacity of wooden chairs and subsequently categorize them based on their performance. A diverse selection of chair models was randomly procured from commercial markets. These ...

This study aimed to numerically and experimentally analyze the effects of internal mounting forces and selected materials on the stiffness and bending moment capacity of L-type corner joints connected with novelty-designed ...
