Network planning of the technological chain for timber land development

Using forest resources involves solving complex and diverse tasks. At the same time, one of the key goals in the field is improving the quality of forest infrastructure. This direction requires adequate mathematical and economic justification. Moreover, creating an effective infrastructure will not only increase the accessibility and usage volumes of wood and other forest resources, but also contribute to the development of continuous and sustainable forest management. The existing practice of making decisions in terms of the organizational and technological aspects of logging, based on the personal experiences of managers or leading specialists in enterprises, hinders the achievement of constant optimal efficiency. The paper presents results that are a continuation of the research cycle of the authors' team in the fields of optimization and algorithmization of various logging processes. The focus of the study lies in the processing and movement of wood resources, the most valuable products of the investigated groups of enterprises. To this end, the paper presents a developed algorithm for determining an effective technological chain of transportation in logging operations, and for improving loading and unloading processing operations under dynamic natural and production conditions. This algorithm serves as the methodological basis for designing logging infrastructure in a dynamically changing environment.

“…Logging with the use of machinery can be carried out by different technological schemes [1,2], various types and collections of machines [3,4,5], and one of the main tasks that arise when performing hauling operations is the task of minimizing the harmful effects of logging equipment on natural environment (trees left for growing), especially during improvement felling [6]. Therefore, the main goal in terms of the environmental friendliness of the use of machinery and technology should be to ensure the maximum increase in labor productivity, providing the rational use of the entire tree biomass and the minimum machines impact on forest ecosystems.…”

Forest management improvement is an important task, especially in the context of the development of forest areas with a depleted resource base. When carrying out non-clear cuttings, the main operation that has the greatest negative impact on the trees left for growing is skidding, during which trees located along the portage and, especially, at the turn, can receive damage, consisting in damage to the root system and trunk bark. It is possible to prevent damage to the trunks of trees left for growing by using fencing devices, which can be made from logging resi-dues located in the cutting area, or from slabs obtained by sawing logs. The use of a protective device does not require large expenses due to the use of substandard wood; after skidding the devices can be easily removed and put on other trees.

The effective use of the production capabilities of logging and woodworking equipment largely depends on the compliance of their design features and work organization parameters in specific production and technical conditions. This is achieved in the process of technological calculations with the determination of the optimal modes of their functioning. The paper proposes a methodology and results of modeling on analytical models when sawing logs. The proposed method consists in the fact that in order to maintain stocks at the calculated level, eliminate downtime of machines with the highest productivity in operations with a lower productivity, the duration of their operation is increased by the time calculated for specific conditions. As a result of the work, the analysis of methods and models of timber inventory management was carried out. The main features of woodworking production and its technological process are given. It has been established that the technological process is a production line of mixed aggregation with flexible connections.
