Wood is a material with anisotropic elastic properties at the macroscale. In the present work, a sample made of Beninise teak was subjected to in situ torsion. DVC analyses were run at the mesoscale to measure displacement fields. The corresponding strain fields were obtained at the same scale in addition to the gray level residuals at the voxel scale. The out-of-plane shear modulus could be calibrated at the macroscale and was in good agreement with earlier coauthors' results. The ultimate shear strength was also assessed at the same scale. Last, damage was detected and quantified at the mesoscale thanks to strain fields and at the microscale via gray level residual fields.
