Modelling is a wide concept. This paper describes various meanings of modelling in relation to mechanical properties of wood and wood-based materials. Three examples of modelling by means of the finite element method, presented in recent years in PhD theses, are used as reference points. They relate to modelling of the micro-structure of wood and its mechanical properties, modelling of drying-induced distortion of boards and modelling of the micro-structure and properties of dry-shaped cellulose fibre materials. The paper concludes with remarks on some studies relating to fracture simulations, strength modelling and glued joints.
