Abstract:: Time studies of logging equipment are important to determine production rates, calculate logging costs and locate operating inefficiencies. However, using present time study techniques, they are also costly and time consuming to complete. This project will develop a new data gathering and storage technique using the HP-75 portable computer to...

Abstract:: The focus of this research concentrates on enhancement of the LOGSIM mechanized log harvesting system simulator. Enhancement of software focuses on overall improvement of the user environment as well as improvement of the performance and capabilities of the simulation package. An enhanced version of the front-end interface program is developed...

Abstract:: There are many situations in which contact between two bodies is at a single point so there can be no tensile (force). This form of contact only provides a single degree of restraint, and is defined as a unidirectional point contact. The analysis of Reuleaux shows that four suitably placed...

Creator:: O'Kins, Charles Eugene
Abstract:: A mechanism is a constrained kinematic chain composed of gears, links, cams, or the like. Mechanisms are the building blocks of all machines, and, as such, their evaluation is of considerable importance to the mechanical designer. Because the mathematical analyses of systems with four or more moving members has been...

Creator:: Chung, Joosang
Abstract:: A computer program package to estimate cable yarding payload capability was made. The package was intended to expand applicability of existing packages and to be user friendly. It has six system options: live skyline, standing skyline, running skyline, slackline, multispan and highlead. In the standing skyline and multispan analyses, load...
