Three-dimensional finite element design procedure for the brushless doubly fed machine

Creator:: Thompson, Brenda E.
Abstract:: Brushless Doubly Fed Machines (BDFM) have potential advantages in variable speed generation and adjustable speed drive applications. The most significant of these advantages is a reduction in the power electronic converter rating, and therefore a reduction in overall system cost. Presently, efforts are being directed at optimizing the design of...

Testing hypotheses using unweighted means

Creator:: Park, Byung S.
Abstract:: Testing main effects and interaction effects in factorial designs are basic content in statistics textbooks and widely used in various fields. In balanced designs there is general agreement on the appropriate main effect and interaction sums of squares and these are typically displayed in an analysis of variance (ANOVA). A...

Log breakdown using dynamic programming and 3-D log shape

Creator:: Zeng, Yimin
Abstract:: A log breakdown model, SAW3D, was developed to optimize lumber recovery from logs of any shape in 3- dimensional space. The program uses a polygonal cross section representation of logs; three nested dynamic programming (DP) algorithms to optimize log breakdown, flitch and cant edging, and trimming operations; and a simple...

A multi-product, multi-depot periodic distribution problem

Creator:: Parthanadee, Parthana
Abstract:: Physical distribution is one of the key functions in logistics systems, involving the flow of products from manufacturing plants or distribution centers through the network of transportation to consumers. The function is very costly, especially for the distribution industries. During the past decades, the significance of physical distribution has increased...

Image segmentation for defect detection on veneer surfaces

Creator:: Zhong, Yuan, 1956-
Abstract:: Machine vision is widely used in scientific areas and non-wood using industries, but the extreme variability of wood has limited its adoption by forest products industries. However, it is now becoming a key factor in further automation of the forest products industry. As a very important part of machine vision,...

A study of optimal timing and intensity of silvicultural practices : commercial and precommercial thinning, fertilization and regeneration effort

Creator:: Kao, Chiang
Abstract:: One traditional problem in forest management is to find the optimal stand level management regime. Four important silvicultural practices including precommercial thinning, commercial thinning, fertilization and regeneration harvest are considered jointly in this study. The partial analyses, i.e. considering some of the silvicultural practices, are also discussed. The inability to...

Model III : a sequential approach to joint optimization of the stand treatment and forest level harvest scheduling problem

Creator:: Barber, Richard L.
Abstract:: Harvest scheduling and stand level optimization have generally been regarded as separable problems. Some studies have attempted to jointly optimize a wide range of stand treatments and a forest wide harvest schedule using combinations of mathematical programming techniques. The mathematical programming forest level techniques presume perfect information on production, costs...
