【 摘 要 】

A substantial part of museum?s collection is painted on wood, so called panel paintings. In an attempt to protect this part of our cultural heritage against degradation, museums apply strict humidity requirements mainly based upon practical experience and perception: Relative Humidity RH = 55% ?5.0%. Today scientist and conservators ask themselves: ?Are these strict requirements really needed and what are the consequences of changing these strict requirements??. Finite Element Analysis could provide an answer and possibly lead to a more permanent solution.
