  • Managing woody biomass transportation for improved biomass economics

    Creator:
    Han, Sang-Kyun
    Abstract:
    With rising fuel costs and enhanced environmental concerns, the use of renewable energy has been steadily considered and widely expounded as a solution to the challenges of global energy security and climate change. The use of woody biomass, in particular, has received considerable attention for energy production due to the...

  • 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...

  • Soil respiration flux in response to soil temperature, moisture, and pH

    Creator:
    Murphy, Bailey
    Abstract:
    Soil respiration has been identified as one of the largest natural sources of CO₂ to the global carbon cycle. Small alterations in the magnitude of soil respiration can have potentially large effects on concentrations of atmospheric CO₂ , making the rate at which respiration occurs of great scientific interest (Martin...

  • Assessing the Maturity of Industrial Engineering as an Engineering Discipline

    Creator:
    Murphy, Thomas W.
    Abstract:
    Industrial Engineering is a broad discipline, with a wide range of definitions for the field and the knowledge areas that make up its parts. A conceptual gap exists between the definition of the field of Industrial Engineering and the definitions of each of these parts. To facilitate advancement of the...

  • Forest biomass estimation with hemispherical photography for multiple forest types and various atmospheric conditions

    Creator:
    Clark, Joshua Andrew
    Abstract:
    The importance of accurately identifying inventories of domestic energy, including forest biomass, has increasingly become a priority of the US government and its citizens as the cost of fossil fuels has risen. It is useful to identify which of these resources can be processed and transported at the lowest cost...
