Journal Article
An analysis of biomechanical and anthropometric parameters on classroom furniture design
Metin Tunay,Kenan Melemez +1 more
TL;DR: The results show that there are significant differences between the anthropometric measures of Turkish students and other nations compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparison of Productivity in Five Small-Scale Harvesting Systems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the efficiency of five alternative extraction methods implemented in a harvesting unit located in a mixed beech and oak forest ecosystem in northwestern Turkey, and found that the extraction by skyline, skidding with farm tractor, and hauling with forest tractor were the most statistically different methods, the productivity of these methods was found significantly higher than the other methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noise induced hearing loss of forest workers in Turkey.
Metin Tunay,Kenan Melemez +1 more
TL;DR: Forest workers using chainsaw machines should be informed, they should wear or use protective materials and less noising chainsaw Machines should be used if possible and workers should undergo audiometric tests when they start work and once a year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of soil-bearing capacity on forest roads by statistical approaches
Tuğrul Varol,Halil Barış Özel,Mertol Ertuğrul,Tuna Emir,Metin Tunay,Mehmet Cetin,Hakan Sevik +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, predictability of California bearing ratio values, which may be used in the planning and dimensioning of forest roads, by using soil mechanical properties (cost and time efficient parameters that are easier to determine) is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The investigation of the ergonomic aspects of the noise caused by agricultural tractors used in Turkish forestry.
Kenan Melemez,Metin Tunay +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the average noise level that the operators were exposed to during the operations was above the hazard limit; for tractors without cabins on which the loading equipment is mounted, it was 93.5 dB (A) and with a noise level of 77.7 dB(A), it was below the warning limit for tractor with original cabins.
