- Method / resource The simulation model enables assessment of dimensional effects on tree deflection and stress.
- Association Tree deflections varied with height, diameter and load.
- Observation Positive and negative maximum stress magnitudes differed.
- Observation Stress maxima could shift abruptly along a trunk when local maxima became global maxima.
