Damping behavior of olive trees under trunk shaking
Abstract This study investigates the damping behavior of olive trees under trunk shaking by assessing transmitted acceleration and logarithmic decrement in the soil and tree, as well as the actual shaking, damping, and elastic powers within the tree.The trunk shaker was operated at five attachment heights: 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 m.Results rev
