Lateral Yarding Mechanics

Purpose

(1) Measure dynamic mainline tension, vertical angle of the mainline, and mainline displacement during lateral inhaul from the initial movement of the turn until it reaches the carriage. (2) Correlate maximum mainline tension and occurrence of hangups dur

Dynamic Testing of Pendulum Swing Balloon Logging System

Purpose

Project will involve rigging a two tree intermediate support arrangement to simulate a balloon and rigging a three guy line pendulum swing balloon system to this. Then tension will be monitored in the lines while weights are swung to simulate logging seq
