Cut-to-length (CTL) timber harvesting technology currently accounts for approximately 90% of Caspian forests. The technology involves felling, branching, cross-cutting, and then the skidder carries the logs to a landing, where the timber is temporarily stored, sorted and assembled for transportation to the mill. Cut-to-length systems typically require less labor, less access road construction, ...

This article has focused on evaluation and identification of effective parameters in positioning performance with an odometry approach of an omni-directional mobile robot. Although there has been research in this field, but in this paper, a new approach has been proposed for mobile robot in positioning performance. With respect to experimental investigations of different parameters in omni-dire...

In this study, presence principles were developed for dynamic display design and evaluation of dynamic display for designing mixed reality space. This is a research to classify the indicators collected through the researches about the existing measurement and evaluation of the existence felling and information suggestion methods in mixed reality as the evaluation principles of the displays and ...

An invasive shrub, Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense Lour.), was removed from heavily infested riparian forests in the Georgia Piedmont in 2005 by mulching machine or chainsaw felling. Subsequent herbicide treatment eliminated almost all privet by 2007. Recovery of plant communities, return of Chinese privet, and canopy tree growth were measured on removal plots and heavily invaded control plot...
