Abstract:: A commercially available, three-dimensional finite-element analysis software was used to model the load-displacement behavior of metal-plate-connected (MPC) joints in wooden trusses. Model features included consideration of material properties, teeth-to-grain-to-direction-of-force orientation, wood-to-wood interaction, and gaps between wood members. To simulate wood-to-plate interaction, the main feature of the model, each tooth of...

Abstract:: The 3-PGS (physiological principles for predicting growth using satellite data) model generates monthly estimates of transpiration, photosynthesis, and net primary production (NPP), the latter derived as a fixed proportion (0.47) of gross photosynthesis. To assess the reliability of a simplified process model (3-PGS) to predict the productive capacity of coniferous...

Abstract:: The inter-relationships among δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O in tree ring cellulose and ring width have the potential to illuminate long-term physiological and environmental information in forest stands that have not been monitored. We examine how within-stand competition and environmental gradients affect ring widths and the stable isotopes of cellulose. We utilize...

Creator:: Vatovec, M., Miller, T. H., Gupta, R., and Lewis, S.
Abstract:: A previously developed, three-dimensional (3-D) finite-element (FE) joint model and several two-dimensional (2-D), beam-element based FE models with different joint-stiffness assumptions (pinned, rigid, and semi-rigid) were used to analyze the full-scale behavior of a metal-plate-connected (MPC) wood scissors truss. The truss displacement and force results were investigated for sensitivity with...

Creator:: Lesser, Mark R., Cherry, Marilyn, and Parker, William H.
Abstract:: Previous laboratory and field studies have presented evidence for the existence of limestone ecotypes in white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss). Remeasurements of the range-wide 410 series of provenance trials were used for further evaluation of the existence of these ecotypes. In 2001, heights were measured of 23 provenances grown...

Abstract:: The land area required for a marker-aided selection (MAS) program to break-even (i.e., have equal costs and benefits) was estimated using computer simulation for coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) in the Pacific Northwestern United States. We compared the selection efficiency obtained when using an index that included the phenotype...

Abstract:: Need for increased outlets for common boards led to a study of lalllinated bevel siding. Low-grade boards of Douglas fir and ponderosa pine were bonded with exterior glue to veneer covering and resin-fiber overlay to form panels subsequently ripped to width and bevel-sawed into siding, Grooves in the lumber core,...

Abstract:: The effects of artificial shading and aspect on the performance of 1-0 container-grown Douglas-fir seedlings were evaluated 1 year after outplanting on four different aspects in southwest Oregon. The test areas, all characterized by steep slopes and shallow, skeletal soils with a surface mantle of loose rock and logging slash,...

Abstract:: This species key to female bumble bees of the Pacific Northwest provides dichotomous couplets which aid the user in identifying 27 species which occur or have occurred historically, and may still be present in the region. The key architecture is based strongly on the key to species for females found...
