Data and code underlying the MSc thesis: Effects of Environmental Exposure on the Compressive Behaviour of Paperboard Shoring Beams in Air Cargo Operations

This dataset contains the full experimental evidence generated during the research project <em>“Effects of Environmental Exposure on the Compressive Behaviour of Paperboard Shoring Beams in Air Cargo Operations.”</em> It includes raw compression test logs exported from a Zwick 10 kN universal testing machine, dimensional and mass measurement records, environmental chamber logs from controlled relative humidity conditioning (50%, 70%, and 90% RH), and the complete weather dataset from Schiphol Airport used in the outdoor exposure campaign. In addition, supplementary statistical outputs (ANOVA, post-hoc, and non-parametric test results) and the scripts used for statistical analyses are provided.All data were collected following the methodology described in the accompanying thesis, which includes quasi-static transverse compression testing of single-cylinder beam segments, controlled environmental conditioning, and natural weather exposure. Force–displacement data were normalised using a preload threshold, and statistical comparisons were carried out using analysis of variance and related methods. Weather data were obtained from the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) open-access database and processed into the formats reported in the thesis.No human participants or animal subjects were involved in this study, and therefore no ethical approval was required. All environmental datasets are derived from publicly available sources and used in accordance with open-data licensing conditions. These materials are shared to promote transparency, reproducibility, and reuse in further investigations of paper-based structural elements.

本数据集包含研究项目《航空货运作业中纸板支撑梁的环境暴露对其受压性能的影响》产生的全部实验证据。其涵盖从Zwick 10 kN万能试验机导出的原始压缩测试日志、尺寸与质量测量记录、针对50%、70%、90%相对湿度（Relative Humidity，RH）的受控环境箱调节日志，以及户外暴露试验所用的史基浦机场完整气象数据集。此外还提供了补充统计输出结果（方差分析（Analysis of Variance，ANOVA）、事后检验及非参数检验结果）与统计分析所用的脚本代码。
所有数据均遵循配套论文中描述的方法采集，包括单缸梁段的准静态横向压缩测试、受控环境调节与自然天气暴露试验。力-位移数据通过预加载阈值进行归一化处理，统计对比采用方差分析及相关方法完成。气象数据取自荷兰皇家气象研究所（KNMI）开放获取数据库，并处理为论文中报告的格式。
本研究未涉及人类受试者或动物受试者，因此无需伦理审批。所有环境数据集均来自公开来源，并严格遵循开放数据许可条款使用。共享这些材料旨在提升纸质结构元件相关后续研究的透明度、可重复性与复用性。
