  2. Skyline logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_logging

    Cable Yarding System in Lushoto, Tanzania. Skyline logging (or skyline yarding) is a form of cable logging in which harvested logs are transported on a suspended steel cable (a cableway or "highline") from where the trees are felled to a central processing location.

    High Lead logging in Western Oregon Cable grue Larix 3T, installed on agricultural tractor. Cable logging, also referred to as skyline logging, is a logging method primarily used on the West Coast of North America with yarder, loaders, and grapple yarders, but also in Europe (Austria, Switzerland, Czech Republic, France, Italy).

  4. Log bucking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log_bucking

    Billet is variously defined as a short piece of round or partially round wood (usually a smaller diameter than a block or bolt [7]) or as a piece split or cut from a bolt, or sometimes synonymous with bolt, particularly when the pieces are intended as firewood, and sometimes means a piece of a billet after it has been split.

  5. Wood method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_method

    [1] [2] It is named after R. H. Wood. According to this method, the ratio between the critical buckling length and the real length of a column is determined based on two redistribution coefficients, η 1 {\displaystyle \eta _{1}} and η 2 {\displaystyle \eta _{2}} , which are mapped to a ratio between the effective buckling length of a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_sampling

    Distance sampling is a widely used group of closely related methods for estimating the density and/or abundance of populations. The main methods are based on line transects or point transects .

  7. Cable length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_length

    A cable in this usage cable is a thick rope or by transference a chain cable. [1] The OED gives quotations from c. 1400 onwards. A cable's length (often "cable length" or just "cable") is simply the standard length in which cables came, which by 1555 had settled to around 100 fathoms (600 ft; 180 m) or 1 ⁄ 10 nautical mile (0.19 km; 0.12 mi).

  9. Hankinson's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hankinson's_equation

    Hankinson's equation (also called Hankinson's formula or Hankinson's criterion) [1] is a mathematical relationship for predicting the off-axis uniaxial compressive strength of wood. The formula can also be used to compute the fiber stress or the stress wave velocity at the elastic limit as a function of grain angle in wood .
