ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY LOGGING IN THE CONTEXT OF WATER LOGGED SOIL AND KNOB- AND-RIDGE TERRAIN
Journal Title: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Research & Developments (JMERD) - Year 2018, Vol 41, Issue 2
Abstract
Wood is an important building material. However, its major reserves are in hard-to-reach are-as, such as water-logged soils, mountain and knob-and-ridge terrains. This situation leads to large wood extraction costs, because vehicles are often out of order due to terrain complexity. Thus, there is a need to improve the efficiency of log skidding vehicles in hard-to-reach log-ging areas while reducing environmental damage. As a result, our mechanism is able to oper-ate effectively in places with hard-to-reach terrain.
