  • 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...
