setBranchesCM

the object of class <code>treeData</code>

object

value


Stores branches CM in the object provided as an argument. branchesCM has to be in the range 0.01 - 1


The centre of mass is a crucial data for arborists in order to
consolidate a tree using steel or dynamic cables. Given field-recorded data
on branchiness of a tree, the package: (i) computes and plots the centre of
mass of the tree itself, (ii) computes branches slenderness coefficient in
order to aid the arborist identify potentially dangerous branches, and
(iii) computes the force acting on a ground plinth and its best position
relating to the tree centre of mass, should the tree need to be stabilized
by a steel cable.
