Design of an object-oriented paradigm for model generation : an application in timber harvestingScott, Thomas M. (Thomas Matthew), 1958- 14 March 1991 (has links)
The potential gains that could be realized from
optimizing timber harvesting are significant. To a great
extent it is these initial functions that dictate the
quality of future manufacturing steps. Timber harvesting
systems are defined by the operations they contain and the
equipment that perform them. For any given harvesting
situation there are a large number of unique systems,
performing under a variety of cost, production, and
environmental conditions. The objective of optimized timber
harvesting is to reduce cost while simultaneously increasing
production and minimizing environmental impact. One way to
accomplish this objective is through mechanization and
automation.
Mechanization increases the production output,
efficiency, and product quality. However selecting an
appropriate level of mechanization to avoid under
utilization of expensive resources is a critical decision.
The decision requires that the product mix, environmental
and user specified constraints be matched against the
available equipment technology, and the required performance
criteria.
This research describes a computer based system which
queries a user on the timber stand specifics and a set of
harvesting objectives. The system then matches these user's
needs to a level of mechanization that would maximize the
efficiency of the production system. The computer
accomplishes this by searching a set of databases containing
information on the available technology and its impact on
production, efficiency, economics and the environment. The
level of mechanization is determined by specific
combinations of existing equipment. Individual pieces of
equipment that are compatible with one another are balanced
together to form a viable productive unit. / Graduation date: 1991

Quantitative assessment of hand function by hand motion analysis usingcybergloveAu, Kin-hei, Timothy., 區建熙. January 2012 (has links)
Hand motion analysis methods have been providing researchers with motion
investigation initiatives, revealing motion features and mechanisms in both
healthy subjects and patients suffering from hand dysfunctions. Technical
advancements have led to the maturation of motion capturing methods such as
goniometric gloves. In this project, the CyberGlove as a manufactured product
was chosen as a potential tool for the development of a hand function assessment
system that would ultimately distinguish between healthy subjects and patients
suffering from hand dysfunctions.
In this study, the evaluation of the CyberGlove as a feasible clinical tool and its
technical adaptations were done in parallel. The sensor output characteristics were
investigated using X-ray photography as a spatial golden standard and the sensors
were shown to exhibit linear qualities with optimal nonlinearities at 0.6%. The
measurement sensitivity and accuracy by the CyberGlove was improved by
establishing a calibration protocol suiting the sensor characteristics. Through a
calibration protocol using calibration tools made by thermoplastics, the angular
measurement error was found to decrease from 7.2% to 1.2%.
The technical development of the software part of the project involved the
inclusion of data preprocessing, display and analysis modules. To investigate the
motion exhibited by healthy subjects, 32 healthy subjects were recruited and they
were asked to complete a series of motion according to a designed motion
protocol involving a static trial, a timed-grip trial and a rapid-grip trial. Motion
features were extracted from recorded motion data by identification and
quantification of temporal or spatial characteristics in motion such as joint
sequence of events, angular kinematics, finger tip path features and phase diagram
features. Some features were evaluated by pattern correlation analysis by linear
regression, and healthy subjects all shared similar patterns resulting in high levels
of regression coefficients R2 and low levels of slope deviations m.
The establishment of motion features along with a prototype motion measurement
system allows the continuous development on the CyberGlove as a hand function
assessment tool when supported by later clinical adaptations or studies. / published_or_final_version / Orthopaedics and Traumatology / Master / Master of Philosophy
