Crooked Forest

The Crooked Forest (Krzywy Las) is a grove of oddly-shaped Scots pine trees located in the village of Nowe Czarnowo near the town of Gryfino, West Pomerania, in north-western Poland.

Dancing Forest

The Dancing Forest (translit) is a pine forest on the Curonian Spit in Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia noted for its unusually twisted trees.

Drunken trees

Drunken trees, tilted trees, or a drunken forest, is a stand of trees rotated from their normal vertical alignment.

Engineered wood

Engineered wood, also called mass timber, composite wood, human-made wood, or manufactured board, includes a range of derivative wood products which are manufactured by binding or fixing the strands, particles, fibres, or veneers or boards of wood, together with adhesives, or other methods of fixation to form composite material. Wood warping and Engineered wood are timber industry.

Flatness (manufacturing)

In manufacturing and mechanical engineering, flatness is an important geometric condition for workpieces and tools.

Forest pathology

Forest pathology is the research of both biotic and abiotic maladies affecting the health of a forest ecosystem, primarily fungal pathogens and their insect vectors.

See Wood warping and Forest pathology

Lumber

Lumber is wood that has been processed into uniform and useful sizes (dimensional lumber), including beams and planks or boards. Wood warping and lumber are timber industry and woodworking.

See Wood warping and Lumber

Moisture

Moisture is the presence of a liquid, especially water, often in trace amounts.

See Wood warping and Moisture

Residual stress

In materials science and solid mechanics, residual stresses are stresses that remain in a solid material after the original cause of the stresses has been removed.

Texas A&M University

Texas A&M University (Texas A&M, A&M, or TAMU) is a public, land-grant, research university in College Station, Texas.

United States

The United States of America (USA or U.S.A.), commonly known as the United States (US or U.S.) or America, is a country primarily located in North America.

See Wood warping and United States

Winding stick

In woodworking and carpentry, a pair of winding sticks is a tool that aids in viewing twist (also known as wind) in pieces of lumber by amplifying the defect.

Wood finishing

Wood finishing refers to the process of refining or protecting a wooden surface, especially in the production of furniture where typically it represents between 5 and 30% of manufacturing costs. Wood warping and wood finishing are woodworking.

See Wood warping and Wood finishing

Wood grain

Wood grain is the longitudinal arrangement of wood fibers or the pattern resulting from such an arrangement. Wood warping and wood grain are woodworking.

See Wood warping and Wood grain

Wood industry

The wood industry or timber industry (sometimes lumber industry -- when referring mainly to sawed boards) is the industry concerned with forestry, logging, timber trade, and the production of primary forest products and wood products (e.g. furniture) and secondary products like wood pulp for the pulp and paper industry. Wood warping and wood industry are timber industry.
