An efficient optimizing model for determining thinning regime and rotation age using the stand projection system growth simulator

Creator:: Yoshimoto, Atsushi
Abstract:: The PATH algorithm, which is the efficient dynamic programming algorithm developed by Paredes and Brodie (1987) was interpreted from a different point of view. This modification of the PATH algorithm by the calculus of variations vastly diminished the calculation task and memory required to store optimal stands at each stage....

Stand level prescription generation under multiple objectives

Creator:: Wedin, Heidi L.
Abstract:: A stand level model, PREscription generator under Multiple Objectives (PREMO) was built to generate prescriptions that address multiple objectives for management of the forests of the Applegate River Watershed. PREMO is a part of the landscape model of the Applegate River Watershed Forest Simulation Project and generates prescription choices for...

Evaluation of scheduling rules for single- and dual-dock automated storage

Creator:: Wang, Wen-tsao
Abstract:: Automated Storage and Retrieval (AS/R) Systems have had a considerable impact on manufacturing and distribution processes. The configuration of AS/R systems vary considerably, depending on the particular application. The effect of different retrieval scheduling rules is analyzed and compared for three different unit-load AS/R systems operating under dual-command cycle. The...

Stand level silvicultural optimization utilizing a late-seral index constraint

Creator:: Semeliss, Wade Alan
Abstract:: A dynamic programming algorithm (MS PATH) was used to develop a stand level optimization model, FPS Optimizer. The model incorporates a late-seral constraint on the profit maximizing objective function utilizing a four-descriptor structural index as a proxy. This index, the 'Old-Growth Index', rates the late-seral structural quality of a given...

Evaluation of a shadow price search heuristic as an alternative to linear programming or binary search for timber harvest scheduling

Creator:: Eldred, Peter D.
Abstract:: The planning of harvests and management activities for forested lands has traditionally been done with either binary search or linear programming. Since both these techniques have some advantages over the other, they have remained in wide use. Hoganson and Rose (1984) have suggested a technique that theoretically could overcome some...

An analysis of factors which contribute to differences between actual and programmed optimum organization on individual farm units

Creator:: Gee, C. Kerry
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors which may limit linear programming as a predictive tool. It has specifically centered attention on components of linear programming models and characteristics of farm operators which create differences between actual and linear programmed farm organizations. Twenty farms in Wasco County, Oregon,...

Probability proportional to size sampling of Douglas-fir from aerial photography

Creator:: Rogers, Roger Allan
Abstract:: This experiment was designed to investigate the use of volume estimations from aerial photography and probability proportional to size (PPS) sample selection in the development of a practical sampling design for timber volume estimation on small land areas of Pacific Northwest Douglas -fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii, Franco). The major problem of...

The SafeD model : incorporating episodic disturbances and heuristic programming into forest management planning for the Applegate River Watershed, southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Graetz, David H.
Abstract:: A hybrid landscape optimization/simulation model called SafeD (Simulation and analysis of forests with episodic Disturbances) was built to address the needs of forest management planning in the Applegate River Watershed, southwestern Oregon (the Apple gate Project). There are two goals of the Applegate Project: 1) search for forest policies and...

Studying electricity feedback for the home with an emphasis on the user

Creator:: Hunter, Josie Elizabeth
Abstract:: As non-renewable resources dwindle and costs increase, it becomes ever more important for people to understand and control their electricity usage. Eco-feedback devices are being developed to increase user awareness and reduce consumption. In order for feedback devices to be successfully adopted into the home, however, they must be appealing...
