Fig. 6

Bending force–bending angle curves of simple wood laminates and of hybrid aluminum-wood laminates with longitudinal (L), transverse (T), and bidirectional (B) fiber orientations for (a) heated, (b) air-dried, (c) moistened, and (d) water-stored conditions. The bending force–bending angle curves of 2 mm- and 4 mm-thick aluminum alloy sheets are also included in (b).
