- Description:
- Managers of timber harvesting companies need timely information on which to base important decisions such as when to use or add costly equipment or how to improve profitability subject to time-varying demands. The overall purpose of this dissertation is to introduce a method that can effectively provide such timely information. A simulation/animation modeling procedure is described for timber harvesting systems. Eleven models of timber harvesting operation systems are developed and validated. Variation analysis is performed on the overall system model. Animation is used to reduce the time for system model development and to aid in communication of simulation results. The application and utility of the simulation/animation method is illustrated using representative timber harvesting systems of the United States.
