He got his PhD degree in mechanical engineering, with specialization in wood technology and processing from the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm in 1998.
Afterwards, he worked as a wood specialist and manager in several wood enterprises in Sweden, and later served as a professor in forest products at Linnaeus University in Växjö. In 2015, he was elected as a chaired professor at Wood Science and Engineering division of Lulea University of Technology, in Skellefteå.
His main research interests include, among others, wood material properties, scanning technology and wood machining, as well as the production systems.[4] Until March 2024, he has published more than 300 research works in several international journals and conferences.
Recognition edit
Since 2012, Sandberg has served as the editor-in-chief of the referred wood-related, scientific journal Wood Material Science and Engineering.[5]
In 2021, in recognition of his research work, he was elected as a fellow at the International Academy of Wood Science. In October 2023, a meta-research carried out by John Ioannidis et al. at Stanford University included Dick Sandberg in Elsevier Data 2022, where he was ranked in the top 2% of researchers of all time in wood science (forestry – materials), having a c-index of 2.9702.[6]
In 2023, along with wood scientists Alfred Teischinger and Peter Niemz, he edited the referenced edition of Springer Handbook of Wood Science and Technology.[7]
