Table 2 Moisture contents (MC) and temperatures of the veneer layers of hybrid aluminum-wood laminates with longitudinal (L), transverse (T), and bidirectional (B) wood fiber orientations used in the FE model. Veneer layers 1 and 4 were located at the punch side and at the support roll side, respectively.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
L, T, B | Heated | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 140 |
L, T, B | Air-dried | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 25 |
L, B | Moistened | 30 | 10 | 6 | 7 | 25 |
T | Moistened | 15 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 25 |
