Numerical Study on Multiple Parameters of Sinkage Simulation between the Track Plate of the Deep-Sea Mining Vehicle and the Seafloor Soil [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The seafloor soil is characterized by high water content, strong compressibility, and low shear strength. Deep-sea mining vehicles (DSMV) are prone to sinking when walking on the surface of the soil, which will cause significant reduction in traction ...

A Modified Pressure–Sinkage Model for Studying the Effect of a Hard Layer in Sandy Loam Soil
Applied Sciences, 2021 The applicability of the typical pressure–sinkage models used to characterize the soil’s bearing properties is limited to homogeneous soils (infinite thickness) that have no hard layer. At a given depth, a hard layer can have a considerable impact on the

A study of pressure-sinkage relationship used in a tyre-terrain interaction [PDF]
International Journal of Engineering and Management Sciences, 2019 The vehicle applies a normal load to the terrain, which causes sinkage and motion resistance. To forecast the normal pressure distribution on the interface of a vehicle–terrain and the tractive performance of a vehicle, the response of the terrain to ...

Development and Performance Evaluation of a Bevameter for Measuring Soil Strength [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 The driving performance of an off-road vehicle is closely related to soil strength. A bevameter is used to measure the soil strength, and it usually consists of two independent devices: a pressure–sinkage test device and a shear test device. However, its

Design and performance evaluation of bevameter equipment
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2020 The depth of tilting in agricultural soil is 30–40 cm, which approximates the equivalent contact diameter of tires for the off-road vehicle. The soil thus tends to have an upper loose layer and a hard layer underneath, which leads to changes in the soil ...
