Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering : Journal for Theory and Application of Forestry EngineeringIn forest operations, economic advantages can be obtained by increasing the distance between the skid trails. This protects soil by reducing the compacted area, while at the same time increasing the productive timber ground area. These advantages are offset by disadvantages, as fully mechanized timber harvesting is not possible and motor-manual felling

Optimisation of forest road network under principles of functionally integrated forest management
Journal of Forest Science, 2003 A traditional approach to problems of the opening-up of forests has been based primarily on technical and economic aspects. It results particularly from the ground configuration and calculations of minimum costs for logging and transport operations ...

Forest road planning considering road and skidding costs (Case study: Kheyrud Forest) [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2011 Hyrcanian forests are the only forests designated for commercial timber production inIran. Ground-based skidding is the most common timber harvesting system used in these forests, but due to low road density (1-2m/ha), large parts of the forests are ...

Balanceo de un sistema de cosecha mecanizado utilizando simulación de eventos discretos
Ciência Florestal, 2007 A mechanized harvest system was analysed, working in a radiata pine clear cut operation and compound by a feller buncher, a grapple skidder, a grapple processor and a three-wheeler. A Discrete Event Simulation Model was built with the goal to balance
