The paper presents a mathematical model designed to calculate the depth of the rut formed by a small-sized skidder on soft soils. The model bases on scientific research in the theory of off-the-road locomotion, completed with the authors? own theoretical developments. The model uses deformation modulus and bearing capacity as integral characteristics of strength and deformability of the soil. Moreover, because the deformation modulus of soft soils has a low value and is comparable to the normal stresses, the model...

Annually natural resources are disappearing more and more, particularly it concerned forest resources. Furniture, houses, carpentry and etc. are made from wood. Scientists gradually try to find options for replacing forest resources, produce products from other materials, but forest areas are declining. every year. For conservation and rational forest usage, it is necessary to change needs for certain assortments and harvesting of natural wood in the future, and it will be achieved by forest consumption optimizati...

The article presents the exposure of forestry activities in the most deforested counties of Romania пїЅ Suceava County. We have conducted a local economic research based on the forestry activities from that county. The database used in this research consists from the National Classification of the Economic Activities, codes at 4-digit level for each territorial administrative unit. The article focuses on the particular situation from the deforested communes: CпїЅrlibaba, Poiana Stampei, Iacobeni. It also presents ...

Geographically, the studied area is located in the north-central part of Valcea county, including the piedmont and mountain area of the Capatanii Mountains and also a part of the hilly region of the Oltenia Subcarpathians, including the forests located in the upper basin of the Govora river. By phyto-climatic point of view the forests of this area belong at two categories: F.M.1 + F.D.4 пїЅ mountain-piedmont area of beech and F.D.3 пїЅhilly evergreen beech area and beech-sessil oak area. The researches were made i...

Temperature is a primary factor affecting the rate of plant development. Extreme temperature events have become more intense, more frequent, and longer in recent years. Extremely high and low temperatures may have a detrimental impact on the productivity of trees in critical phases of their development. The work presents the results of phenological observations of two broadleaved tree species: European hazel (Corylus avellana L.) and sessile oak (Quercus petraea Matt.) with the main emphasis on the impact of the t...

After 1990, when Romania changed its political regime, many changes registered in the economic field. The new economic system had to experience the new form of transition from a Centralized to the Capitalism new one. The forestry field had been affected too, and it should adapt to the new conditions of the economic market demand. In the new economic conditions, it should adapt the offer with the demand. Taking into account the natural conditions, the tradition of wood processing and the predominance of the forest ...

The forest is generally recognized as a major environmental and stabilizing factor in the country. Its stability is currently significantly influenced by changing climatic conditions. They are an important factor in a determining species composition of forest ecosystems, as well as ecophysiological and production processes directly linked to the overall performance and stability of forest stands. Dry summer months and warmer winters with negative anthropogenic activities actually create more favorable conditions f...

In the present paper theme of estimation of forest susceptibility take on degradation was taken. Until this time this problem wa sn’t identified enough in literature (see Kowalkowska i in., 1995). That is the reason why author concentrates on presentation of new proposal of system of estimate forest state. Forests has been analyzed as elements of natural environments (system). In such captivation it is possible to follow co-dependences and interactions individual components between them. The investigative area w...
