The Value of New Technology : View Toward Reassessment

Creator:: White, Stephen J.
Abstract:: Abraham Heschel wrote that a philosopher's primary task was not merely to describe and judge the modes and facts of actual human behavior, but also to examine and understand the meaninq of those descriptions and judgements of modes and facts (Bella, 1978). Our values are critically tied to our structures...

Estimating volume and value on standing timber in hybrid poplar plantations using terrestrial laser scanning : a case study

Creator:: Barnett, Jennifer S.
Abstract:: Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) may provide a way to increase timber value recovery by replacing manual timber cruising with a simple-to-use, cost-effective alternative. TLS has been studied in several trials worldwide. Past studies have not compared TLS based estimates with mill estimates of stem value and volume. Three differently stocked...

Estimating spatial changes in acoustic velocity in felled Douglas-fir stems

Creator:: Dowding, Bodie
Abstract:: To compete with other building materials, the wood products industry must find a way to increase value and lower costs. Wood stiffness is important for most wood uses. Value can be increased and costs can be lowered by sorting logs for stiffness in the woods using acoustic devices mounted on...

Modeling air-drying of Douglas-fir and hybrid poplar biomass in Oregon

Creator:: Kim, Dong-Wook
Abstract:: Both transportation costs and market values of woody biomass are strongly linked to the amount of moisture in the woody biomass. Therefore, managing moisture in the woody biomass well can lead to significant advantages in the woody biomass energy business. In this study, two prediction models were developed to estimate...

Evaluation of a prototype NIR system for Douglas-fir wood density estimation

Creator:: Belart Lengerich, Maria Francisca
Abstract:: Forest products companies in the U.S. face vigorous competition from other wood producers around the world and other industries (steel, aluminum, plastics, composites). To be competitive, forest companies need to control costs, sort and allocate logs to the most appropriate markets, and recover more value at time of harvest. Interest...

Evaluation of six tools for estimating woody biomass moisture content

Creator:: Becerra Ochoa, Fernando Amador
Abstract:: Woody biomass transportation costs and market values/costs are strongly correlated with the woody biomass moisture content. Properly managing moisture content can potentially lead to economic and environmental advantages in biomass energy markets. Good management requires accurate moisture content measurements. Therefore, availability of accurate, precise, reliable, and efficient tools to assess...

The evaluation of the field vane shear strength analysis of the Glen Aiken creek embankment failure

Creator:: Clarke, James Dennis
Abstract:: A post-failure investigation of a highway embankment constructed over organic and sensitive subsoils was made with a series of field vane tests. The results indicated that the embankment was quite stable, and, therefore, the reliabilities of both the Φ = 0 slip-circle analysis and the field vane results seemed to...

A cytological study of a spontaneous reciprocal translocation in the domestic fowl Gallus domesticus

Creator:: Ryan, William Charles
Abstract:: Statistical data from breeding experiments suggested that a reciprocal chromosomal translocation had spontaneously occurred in a line of S. C. White Leghorn fowl. Approximately 50% of the embryos from matings between suspected translocation heterozygotes and normal birds died early during incubation. In an effort to obtain cytological proof of this...
