  • Log cost allocation for multiple mill merchandising systems

    Creator:
    Leatherman, Louis M.
    Abstract:
    Co-located mills that share a log resource through a single merchandising facility are challenged with the task of allocating the costs of joint-products in order to determine log cost for each mill during a given period. While allocating joint-costs is inherently arbitrary, some allocation must be made to include raw...

    Evans, Matthew R.
    Abstract:
    A Finite Element Model of a deployed Fiber-Optic Micro Cable (FOMC) was performed using the marine cable modeling software, OrcaFlex. The focus of this study was a parametric analysis of a two-part, towed cable array with the FOMC dragged behind a depressor and connected to a drogue chute. Length-to-diameter ratios...
