Rate My Professor Jimmy Johansson

Johansson's research specializes in eco-effective products and production systems to maximize wood value, focusing on visual wood products for living environments, mechanical hardwood processing, scanner-based quality sorting, nuclear magnetic resonance imaging for wood parameters, and capillary properties of wood. He teaches undergraduate courses including Wood manufacturing, Machinery in wood processing, Wood material science, Manufacturing in the wood industry, and CAE/Computer Aided Engineering, while planning the Master program in Forest and Wood Technology with industrial partners. Since 2009, he has been co-editor of the Journal Wood Material Science and Engineering and contributes to partnerships like The Bridge with IKEA and Södra. Key publications include 'Effects of cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication on milling force and surface quality of wood-plastic composites' (Zhang et al., 2026), 'Full-Field Force Mapping of Cutting Forces Driven by Local Density Variations in Norway Spruce Wood' (Mellqvist et al., 2025), 'The Influence of Slicing Thickness on the Perpendicular to Grain Tensile Properties of Oak Lamellae' (Grubîi and Johansson, 2023), 'Identifying present drivers of product development... harvesters' (Gustafsson and Johansson, 2022), and earlier works on CT-scanning of capillary uptake (Johansson and Kifetew, 2010) and shape stability of laminated veneer products (Blomqvist et al., 2014), reflecting his impact on sustainable wood utilization and processing innovations.
