“…Some of the most important research is on the use of simulation techniques. These involve a variety of approaches: the modeling of wood quality in stand simulation models (ORGANON), the development of log diagramming techniques (Barbour et al 1999), the adaptation of the AUTOSAW sawing simulator (Todoroki 1990) for use in North America, veneer peeling simulators (Mothe et al 2004), and use of the ROMI Rip and ROMI Cross (Thomas 1997(Thomas , 1999 simulation software with small-diameter softwoods (Lowell et al 2004). Both ESP and WUC work in conjunction with the Ketchikan Wood Technology Center.…”

The Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture is dedicated to the principle of multiple use management of the Nation's forest resources for sustained yields of wood, water, forage, wildlife, and recreation. Through forestry research, cooperation with the States and private forest owners, and management of the National Forests and National Grasslands, it strives-as directed by Congress-to provide increasingly greater service to a growing Nation.The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, or marital or family status.

Lumber processing simulation allows the user an opportunity to examine ways to best utilize the many grades of lumber available to the user. It is most important that the simulation must be able to accurately model the processing plant steps and be capable of obtaining the desired part sizes in the correct quantities. This gives management the ability to increase production and reduce costs associated with lost yield.Flow simulation allows the user to try out different plant layout scenarios as well as engineer a plant prior to construction.
