In silico simulation of the degradation of wood and wood products byIn silico simulation of the degradation of wood and wood products by Fungi.

As wood is prone to biological degradation, it is necessary to gather knowledge concerning its susceptibility to fungal attack to strengthen its position as a building material. By using state-of-the-art techniques such as confocal microscopy and X-ray computed tomography, combined with advanced processing and simulation tools, fundamental insight can be acquired in the wood decay processes.
