Popis: It has been established that the risk of damage to paintings on wood (“panel paintings”) increases with the presence of cracks, delaminations, and their associated stress concentrations. Such flaws can originate and increase in size as a result of fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity, as well as shock and vibration. Many internal flaws cannot be detected either visually or by traditional testing techniques, and it is difficult, therefore, to assess the risk transportation poses to panel paintings.
