Article Link: https://doi.org/10.1007/s13595-021-01031-w AbstractA novel non-destructive method has been developed to predict modulus of elasticity (MOE) of logs using measurements taken from cores extracted from discs. The trees were felled and cut into logs to allow validation of our method; however, similar results would be obtained if the cores were extracted from standing trees. The method shows that a single core from breast height is sufficient to predict MOE of logs, allowing early grading and sorting of logs for optimal use and processing.
