In view of the problems that fuselage inclines and driving straightness is difficult to guarantee due sinking sliding wheels when high-clearance plant protection machine working in paddy field, this paper takes as research object, based on field environment, establishes a prediction model wheel subsidence through derivation, explores influence different parameters characteristics experiments, s...

This paper investigates the validity of commonly used terramechanics models for light-weight vehicle applications while accounting for experimental variability. This is accomplished by means of cascading uncertainty up to the terminal point of operations measurement. Vehicle-terrain interaction is extremely complex, and thus models and simulation methods for vehicle mobility prediction are larg...

The aim of this paper is to present a hybrid electrical air-cushion tracked vehicle (HETAV) for the operation on swamp peat. Mathematical models are incorporated with accounting kinematics and dynamics behaviors of the vehicle. Sinkage of the HETAV is sensed by an ultrasonic displacement (UD) sensor, in order to operate the air-cushion system. The air-cushion of HETAV is protected with a novel-...
