Mechanics of painted wooden panels from the cultural heritage: the case of Mona Lisa
نویسنده
چکیده
The mechanical response of the wooden support of Mona Lisa to the action of the frame has been modeled using finite elements and compared to observations by optical techniques. The risk of propagation of the existing crack, estimated through the calculation of an elastic energy release rate, was found negligible.

Contribution of mechanical engineering to the conservation of panel paintings : the case of Mona Lisa
The mechanical response of the wooden support of Mona Lisa to the action of the frame has been modeled using finite elements and compared to observations by optical techniques. The risk of propagation of the existing crack, estimated through the calculation of an elastic energy release rate, was found negligible. Introduction The application of wood science and engineering principle to improve ...
متن کاملHygromechanical Behaviour of Painted Wooden Panels from the Cultural Heritage
Provided it has been properly processed and implemented in structural applications, including protecting against biological attacks and accounting for moisture induced movements, wood is able to withstand considerable duration of loading thanks to its good resistance to fatigue and sophisticated multi-scale composite structure. For that reason, it is still present as the structural element of v...
متن کامل3 D technology for measurement of paintings surface deformations : a case study
Ancient painted wooden panels are an important part of our cultural heritage. Wood as a support has always been very popular and painted panels are currently present, in a large number, in many churches and museums. However, depending on conservation conditions, their shape may modify in time and if not properly controlled may lead to some sever damage to the artworks. The paper describes the r...
