  2. Cut-to-length logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut-to-length_logging

    Cut-to-length logging (CTL) is a mechanized harvesting system in which trees are delimbed and cut to length directly at the stump. [1] CTL is typically a two-man, two-machine operation with a harvester felling, delimbing, and bucking trees and a forwarder transporting the logs from the felling to a landing area close to a road accessible by ...

  3. Spar (tree) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spar_(tree)

    The spar tree is selected based on height, location and especially strength and lack of rot in order to withstand the weight and pressure required. Once a spar tree is selected, a climber would remove the tree's limbs and top the tree (a logging term for cutting off the top of the tree). Block and tackle is then affixed to the tree and cabling ...

  4. Block and tackle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

    Diagram 3 shows three rope parts supporting the load W, which means the tension in the rope is W/3. Thus, the mechanical advantage is three-to-one. Thus, the mechanical advantage is three-to-one. By adding a pulley to the fixed block of a gun tackle the direction of the pulling force is reversed though the mechanical advantage remains the same ...

  5. Radial tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_tree

    A radial tree, or radial map, is a method of displaying a tree structure (e.g., a tree data structure) in a way that expands outwards, radially. It is one of many ways to visually display a tree, [2] [3] with examples dating back to the early 20th century. [4] In use, it is a type of information graphic. Radial vs. triangular tree layout

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_animation

    Skeletal animation or rigging is a technique in computer animation in which a character (or other articulated object) is represented in two parts: a polygonal or parametric mesh representation of the surface of the object, and a hierarchical set of interconnected parts (called joints or bones, and collectively forming the skeleton), a virtual ...

    Attack tree, conceptual diagrams showing how a target might be attacked; Fault tree diagram, diagram used in deductive failure analysis in various industries; Program structure tree, hierarchical diagram that displays the organization of a computer program; Treemapping, a method for displaying hierarchical data using nested figures, usually ...

  8. Tree structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_structure

    A tree structure, tree diagram, or tree model is a way of representing the hierarchical nature of a structure in a graphical form. It is named a "tree structure" because the classic representation resembles a tree , although the chart is generally upside down compared to a biological tree, with the "stem" at the top and the "leaves" at the bottom.

  9. Cutaway drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutaway_drawing

    A cutaway drawing, also called a cutaway diagram, is a 3D graphics, drawing, diagram and or illustration, in which surface elements of a three-dimensional model are selectively removed, to make internal features visible, but without sacrificing the outer context entirely.
