Key Points

The aim is to clarify the mechanical roles of cellulose and the matrix polysaccharides in wood cell walls through modeling.
Established a supramolecular structure model of wood cell walls.
Used asymptotic homogenization theory to determine effective elastic properties of composite materials.
Simulated the established structure using molecular dynamics software for comparison with theoretical solutions.
Contrasted experimental results with calculated values to validate the model.
The model successfully captures the arrangement of cellulose microfibrils and the matrix in wood.
The comparison between theoretical and experimental results supports the proposed mechanical roles of the components.
The simulation outcomes align with the expected elastic properties derived from the theoretical framework.
