https://doi.org/10.21829/myb.2019.2531712Palabras clave:
biomecánica de las plantas, comportamiento estructural, materiales vegetalesResumen
Los árboles son los seres vivos más grandes y pesados que han poblado la Tierra. Para conseguirlo, cuentan con la madera (un material estructural excepcional) y con un sinnúmero de estrategias de diseño. Este trabajo es una revisión del estado del arte relacionada con las estrategias más importantes de crecimiento, anatomía y morfología que tienen los árboles, destacando conceptos generales relacionados con atributos estructurales que tienen que ver con la biomecánica de las plantas. Asimismo, este artículo resalta las características de los materiales naturales vegetales que poseen una organización jerárquica y que, en su mayoría, son materiales compuestos reforzados con fibras, materiales con estructura celular o ambos, como la madera.Descargas
