Acoustic Assessment of Wood Quality of
RAW FOREST MATERIALS
– A Path to Increased Profitability
Xiping Wang, Peter Carter, Robert J. Ross, and Brian K. Brashaw
Felled stems can be tested to assist in optimization of value capture in log-making, while logs can be assessed for ranking of average wood quality (stiffness and related characteristics), or segregated for supply to different customers or processing options. Automated on-line log testing is relevant to valuation of log supplies, ranking of log supply sources, prediction of MSR yields for output planning, as well as providing a very efficient
means for segregation of logs based on quality and suitability for different customers or processing options.
