CRUZ DE LEON, Gildardo y CRUZ DE LEON, José. The segmental conic model for forest measurements. Madera bosques [online]. 2006, vol.12, n.2, pp.91-96. ISSN 2448-7597. https://doi.org/10.21829/myb.2006.1221245.
A close analysis of traditional geometries and volume equations in forest measurements lead us to propose the use of conic geometry by segments as an alternative method to approach the whole form of any regular tree bole, log or bolt. The model is general and applies to any solid of revolution and is supported on the truncated cone volume equation. It is called The Segmental Conic Model. The model accuracy depends on the number of segments and is exact in the limit when that number goes to infinity.
