It introduces the physical, chemical and the mechanical properties as well as the characterization of bamboo. Novel industrial applications in structural, non-structural, reinforcement, afforestation, land reclamation, environmental significance, textile, medical, geotechnical, hydraulic, food, Pulp and the paper industries are addressed in detail. Bamboo has been used for centuries as a structural material as well as in diverse engineering applications, food and medicinal purposes, especially in Asia. As a natural fiber composite, bamboo has the potential for many developments in academic and industrial research. Current literature on composites tends to focus on bamboo as a plant or solely as a structural engineering material. This book seeks to bring together these two extremes and provides a holistic resource on the subject.MechanicsMechanics, AppliedCeramicsGlassComposites (Materials)Composite materialsForest productsMaterials sciencePolymers  Structural materialsSolid Mechanicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15010Ceramics, Glass, Composites, Natural Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z18000Wood Science & Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22032Characterization and Evaluation of Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z17000Polymer Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008Structural Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z11000Mechanics.Mechanics, Applied.Ceramics.Glass.Composites (Materials).Composite materials.Forest products.Materials science.Polymers  .Structural materials.Solid Mechanics.Ceramics, Glass, Composites, Natural Materials.Wood Science & Technology.Characterization and Evaluation of Materials.Polymer Sciences.Structural Materials.620.1Akinlabi Esther Titilayoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut937034Anane-Fenin Kwameauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autAkwada Damenortey Richardauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910254157103321Bamboo2110441UNINA
