Abstract
In order to describe the behaviour of wood when calculating wooden elements and structures with the use of the finite element method, orthotropic material model in combination with non-interactive (maximum stress criterion) or interactive failure criteria (Hoffman and Tsai-Wu criterion) is used. Another option is to use a general anisotropic plasticity material model complemented with a non-interactive failure criterion – maximum stress criterion, which allows to describe wood failure by brittle failure in tension. The presented general material model was used in combination with the idealization of annual rings by cylindrical surface for the modelling of wood specimen tests form Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). The obtained results show good agreement between the results of numerical analysis and experimental testing of wood specimens. The use of the anisotropic material model can also be seen in cases when the level of the applied load is higher than the level when the failure of wooden material occurs.
