The concept of WoodFibre3D is to apply and combine a set of advanced state-of-the-art 3D characterisation facilities to gain increased fundamental knowledge on the fibre structures at cell-/fibre-/wood-structure level. This competence will be combined with modelling expertise to understand and predict the mechanical properties of the wood fibres and how they can be utilised as reinforcements in composite applications.

The WoodFibre3D project consists of 5 important work packages and is a cooperation project with research groups from:
-
Sweden (Royal Institute of Technology, KTH, Centre of Image analysis - Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, SLU),
-
Finland (University of Jyväskylä, JYU),
-
Denmark (Risø National Laboratory, Technical University of Denmark) and
-
Norway (SINTEF and PFI). |

PFI is responsible for the work package "Wood fibre structure characterisation".
