Three skyline carriage types are analyzed on the basis of their operating characteristics and limitations. Their effect on productivity
is expressed as cubic feet per hour yarded to the landing. These carriage types, te ...
Initially, a small experimental study was undertaken to examine the influence of incline on the frequency of taut cables. The experiments consisted of exciting a short cable at angles of incline from zero to 90 degrees a ...

This study compares the production rates and yarding costs of prebunching
with a low investment skyline yarder and swinging with a larger
skyline yarder to full-cycle thinning with the larger yarder The study
analyzes ...
This paper describes a mathematical formulation and a computer program
in basic language for analyzing the load carrying capacity of skyline
systems using the effects of log drag. The actual log and ground geometry
ar ...
