Many practical research articles have direct relevance to current logging operations. All research articles are free-for-download.
The June 2012 edition of the Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering (Volume 33, Issue 1) has been published. Logging-on has listed some of the more applied research articles below, but it is worthwhile to access the index for this volume as many other interesting topics are also included. Selected article titles are as follows:

Logging-on has listed some of the more applied research articles below, but it is worthwhile to access the index for this volume as many other interesting topics are also included. Selected article titles are as follows:
- Application of a sugarcane harvester for harvesting of willow trees aimed at short rotation forestry: an experimental case study in Japan (Yoshioka, Sugiura and Inoue).
- Mechanised harvesting of eucalypt coppice for biomass production using high mechanisation level (Picchio, Sirna, Sperandio, Spina and Verani).
- Productivity and profitability of forest machines in the harvesting of normal and overgrown willow plantations (Fulvio, Bergstrom, Kons and Nordfjell).
- Productivity of processing hardwood from coppice forest (Suchomel, Spinelli and Magagnotti).
- Estimation of machinery market size for industrial and energy wood harvesting in Leningrad region (Gerasimov and Karjalainen).
- Productivity models for operational planning of timber forwarding in Croatia (Stankic, Porsinsky, Tomasic, Tonkovic and Frntic).
- Energy use and emissions from the operational phase of a medium distance cableway system (Klvac, Fischer and Skoupy).
- Potential mechanisms for co-operation between transportation entrepreneurs and customers: A case study of regional entrepreneurship in Finland (Palander, Vainikka and Yletyinen).
- Improving accuracy in earthworks volume estimation for proposed forest roads using a high-resolution digital elevation model (Contreras, Arecana and Chung).
- Planning forest accessibility with a low ecological impact (Iordache, Nita and Clinciu).
