Sess saes caused in wood by dying peiods ae ofen he souce of consideable sucual disodes, when his maeial is used as sucual maeial. The oigin of hese sesses is geneally due o he viscoelasic behaviou of he wood combined wih he dimensional vaiaions (shinkage) elaed o he moisue conen. In ode o bee undesand his phenomenon, a slice of geen wood is submied o naual dying in sable envionmenal condiions. The wood slice is placed on an eleconic balance so as so o measue he moisue conen vaiaion duing he dying peiod. Simulaneously, he displacemens caused in he slice by he dying ae capued by a video camea. An incemenal elaxaion model based on he genealized Maxwell s chain is used o analyze he evoluion of he sesses induced by he dying pocess wihin he wood slice. Numeical esuls show he developmen of ensile sesses in he maeial. Analyzing hese esuls leads o he conclusion ha he sesses ae due o he ohoopic behaviou of he wood maeial combined wih anisoopic dying shinkage. A ensile sess concenaion is evidenced in a zone whee a cack was finally obseved duing he es. 1. Inoducion The naual o he aificial dying of wood is commonly esponsible fo lage sain and can lead o he cacking and he final collapse of he imbes sucues. These defecs ae much moe maked on he wood pieces cu and soed oudoos he long peiods ago [1]. The imbe is composed of polymes sensiive o he empeaue and he humidiy, heefoe, is dying involves dimensional changes due o he shinkage. Hence, he behaviou of wood duing dying depends songly in he one pa, of he geomey, he moisue conen gadien, he empeaue, he sopion of wood hisoy, bu also, of he heeogeneous chaace, he ohoopic behaviou, and he viscoelasic effecs of his maeial. I appeas ha, he phenomenon of shinkage and he mechanical behaviou of wood duing dying play an impoan ole in he developmen of wood defecs. In his conex, i is essenial o undesand he conibuion of diffeen pocesses in he sain of he geen wood duing he dying phase. In he lieaue, vaious sudies concening he sain and he sess evoluions caused by dying of wood have been conduced. These woks ae geneally based on complex analyical appoaches solved by finie elemen models aking ino accoun he changes of he mechanical popeies of wood duing he dying phase [2,3]. In addiion, seveal auhos have pesened dying models ha can assess he disibuion of moisue inside he wood duing he shinkage wih moisue conen nea he fibe sauaion poin (FSP) [4]. Also, he mechanical behaviou of wood and ee has been poposed in ode o know he impac of he biomechanical and he micosucues paamees in he old hisoy [5]. Recenly, he sudies on he heological behaviou of wood duing gowh phases have shown he effec of he viscoelasic effecs in he ecovey of he ee duing is gowh [6] wihou insis on he conibuion of moisue conen in he manifesaion of his complex phenomenon. In his wok, an incemenal viscoelasic elaxaion model adaped o ohoopic maeial aking ino accoun he hygoscopic vaiaions of wood duing he dying pocess is developed. The analyical model is based on he Bolzmann inegal equaions ha can be solved by an incemenal fomulaion expessed in em of ceep [7] o elaxaion [8,9] appoach. The fis pa descibes he mechanism of dying sesses in wood and he expeimenal deails consideed in he numeical sample. Then, he incemenal law applied o viscoelasic ohoopic maeial and he algoihm esoluion implemened in he finie elemen code Cas3m, ae deailed ogehe. The numeical esuls, in ems of sess evoluions, wih and wihou viscoelasic behaviou ae compaed ae discussed.
2. Expeimenal echnique 2.1 Wood dying mechanical behaviou and expeimenal seup The objecive of he dying pocess is o educe he moisue conen of wood avoiding in he same ime he poenial losses of qualiy caused by he diffeen defecs exising in he wood maeial [2]. Fo he wood species, i appeas ha above he fibe sauaion poin (FSP), he wood is no submied o any dimensional changes. Howeve, below he FSP unil he anhydous sae, hee is an almos linea elaionship beween moisue conen and he dimensional changes [10]. The FSP ae is slighly vaiable and depends on he consideed species. Accoding o he cylindical geomey of he ee, he cicula pah of he annual ings and he axial oienaion of cells, an axisymmeic mechanical chaaceisics o cylindical ohoopic maeial (longiudinal L, angenial T, and adial R diecions) can be applied. In fac, he shinkage is due o he dimensional changes duing he vaiaion of moisue conen. Thus, each species is chaaceized by hee coefficiens of shinkage (axial, adial and angenial shinkages) ha expess he dimensional vaiaions of a wood piece fo a humidiy change of 1% in he hee diecions menioned above. The dying sainis highly anisoopic and he axial shinkage can be negleced compaed wih he angenial and he adial shinkage [10]. Howeve, fo some species, he adial and angenial shinkage ae almos idenical, consequenly, hese species ae less sensiive o dying cacks. The expeimenal seup is based on he mak acking mehod consising of an acquisiion sysem dae ecoding he displacemen of age posed on he wood slice duing he dying phase, Figue 1 (a). The diamee and hickness of he slice ae abou 10 cm and 2.5 cm especively, and he envionmenal condiions of he oom es ae consan. Simulaneously, he sample is placed on an eleconically balance poviding he weigh measue vesus ime, Figue 1 (b).!%#$!"#$!"#$ Figue 1 (a) Geen wood slice.

7. Conclusion The hydo-mechanical behaviou of wood duing dying and he heeogeneous and ohoopic chaace of he maeial have been ecalled. The expeimenal seup consised of composed of a Douglas fi geen wood slice, posed on a sensiively weigh, and a video camea ecoded he displacemens of ages have been used. The PSF aound 22/% has been obained by his echnique. Then he decomposiion of he elaxaion enso on he basis of a Diichle seies has been inoduced.
