Although Mexico is one of the major lime producing countries in the world the crop is not completely utilized. In this paper some ideas are reviewed in relation to various possible products that can be obtained from the efficient processing of limes. Among these are the extraction of the juice,...
Cichelli gave a simple machine independent minimal perfect hashing function for small static sets. The hash function value for a word is computed as the sum of the length of the word and the values associated with the first and last letters of the word. Cichelli's algorithm (word-oriented) to find...
A software system to study network algorithms was implemented on UNIX. Each part of a network algorithm is written as a single C program which becomes a virtual node in the network. During a simulation, all virtualized nodes run as separate processes on a single PDP 11/40. Inter-node communication is...
Tension relationships were determined in steel cable passed through a stump notch and anchored to another object. Tensions were measured in the cable coming into and leaving the notch with one full wrap on the stump. Data was collected from two sites with two test stumps (15.7 to 37.5 inches...
The peat swamp forests of Sarawak are an important
resource in the context of the socio-economic development
of the state. Logging is the main activity in these forests.
In the absence of an economical mechanized system, the
method of harvesting has evolved into a highly organized
effective manual system. Though...
In this paper the extent of the steep slope brush conversion problem will be estimated. Potential solutions and development should be commensurable with the extent of the problem. The state-of-the-art of steep slope site preparation and conversion will
be described. Feasible alternatives to these limited options will be developed.
The purpose of this study was to determine the significant
variables influencing the damage levels sustained by the residual
stand after skyline thinning of coniferous stands. Damage levels were
measured in ten study areas in western Oregon that had received their
first commercial thinning.
For this post-logging study, 38 units...
This paper discusses the development of a computer simulation program for the operation of a log landing for the proposed Helistat airship. The first part of the paper describes the time study used to develop production rates for the chasers, buckers, front-end loaders, and skidders to be used on the...
