System For And Method Of Performing Evaluation Techniques On A Log Or Round Timber

View page
US Patent:
7043990, May 16, 2006
Filed:
Jan 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/470145
Inventors:
Xiping Wang - Madison WI, US
Robert J. Ross - Madison WI, US
James A. Mattson - Laurium MI, US
John Erickson - Madison WI, US
John W. Forsman - Hancock MI, US
Earl A. Geske - Cross Plains WI, US
Michael A. Wehr - Kewadin MI, US
Assignee:
Board of Control of Michigan Technological University - Houghton MI
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture - Washington DC
International Classification:
G01N 33/46
G01N 3/30
US Classification:
73597, 73602, 702 56
Abstract:
A system for and method of evaluating a log. The system includes an analysis module having at least one input terminal connectable to the at least one input device. The at least one input terminal is operable to receive at least one signal representing at least one measured property of the log and at least one determined parameter of the log determined in response to an energy being applied to the log. The analysis module further includes a processor coupled to the at least one input terminal. The processor determines a predictive modulus of elasticity (MOE) of the log based at least in part on the at least one measured property and the at least one sensed parameter. The analysis module also includes an output terminal coupled to the processor and connectable to an output device. The output terminal transmits a third signal representing the predictive MOE.

Method And Apparatus For In Situ Evaluation Of Wooden Members

View page
US Patent:
53967992, Mar 14, 1995
Filed:
Jul 13, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/912391
Inventors:
Robert J. Ross - Madison WI
Rodney C. De Groot - Madison WI
Earl A. Geske - Cross Plains WI
William J. Nelson - Madison WI
Vyto C. Malinauskas - Madison WI
Diego O. Cuevas - Madison WI
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of
Agriculture - Washington DC
International Classification:
G01H 100
G01N 2904
US Classification:
73579
Abstract:
A method for the non-destructive evaluation of the integrity of wooden members, in situ, for example, embedded in the soil, employing the reflection of an acoustic wave off of the embedded end of the wooden member. The reflection is caused by the discontinuity in acoustic properties between wood and the supporting medium. The method allows the measurement, at one end of the member, of substantially the entire length of the wooden member without its removal. The acoustic wave is monitored in time and amplitude to provide indications of sound speed and attenuation, measurements which apparently are not unduly affected by coupling losses between the wooden member and its supporting matrix. These measured values may be empirically linked in an equation providing the integrity of the wooden member.
