   A branch collar is the "shoulder" between the branch and trunk of woody plants; the inflammation formed at the base of the branch is caused by annually overlapping trunk tissue. [1] The shape of the branch collar is due to two separate growth patterns, initially the branch grows basipetally, followed by seasonal trunk growth which envelops the ...

   Shaft collars saw few improvements until 1910 through 1911, when William G. Allen and Howard T.

   One of the main features of TABs is their strength, requiring fewer tree penetrations for robust fastening of a treehouse and hence less damage to a live tree.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whippletree_(mechanism)

   The tree provides distributed mechanical support, reducing localised mechanical deflections, which in turn reduces optical distortion. [4] Unlike the applications described above, which are two-dimensional, the whippletrees in telescope mirror support cells are three-dimensional designs, [ 5 ] since the tree must support multiple points over an ...
