Evaluation of Yield Improvements in Machine vs. Visual Strength Grading for Softwood Species

Combined Visual and Machine Strength Grading

The aim of this study was to show the possibility of the classification of structural timber (European spruce) into strength class C35 according to EN 338 by using combined visual and machine strength grading techniques. Three different visual machine strength grading combinations are devised for allocating sawn timber into strength class C35. They are composed on the one hand of the visual gra...

Training Visual Imagery: Improvements of Metacognition, but not Imagery Strength

Visual imagery has been closely linked to brain mechanisms involved in perception. Can visual imagery, like visual perception, improve by means of training? Previous research has demonstrated that people can reliably evaluate the vividness of single episodes of imagination - might the metacognition of imagery also improve over the course of training? We had participants imagine colored Gabor pa...
