Visualization and quantification of soil laboratory impact compaction
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2022 As important methods to guide the field soil compaction, the standard and modified Proctor tests for laboratory compaction have remained unchanged for decades, which should be improved to better understand the compaction process and the properties of ...

The evaluation of the soil pressure distribution and carcass stiffness resulting from pneumatic agricultural tyres [PDF]
, 2010 Introducing loads onto the soil via pneumatic tyred equipment is the major cause of compaction of agricultural soils, which causes damage to the soil-water-air-plant system.

Managing soil compaction – A choice of low-mass autonomous vehicles or controlled traffic?
, 2020 Compaction-induced soil degradation is of growing importance as field machinery continues to increase in power and mass. Approaches to managing the impacts of soil compaction include minimisation (reduce load), remediation (tillage) and confinement ...

The effects of tyre systems on the depth and severity of compaction [PDF]
, 2006 High value crops such as peas for the frozen vegetable market have to be harvested at the optimum point for quality, regardless of field conditions. Six wheeled pea harvesters with a gross weight of 27 t, giving a wheel load of 4.5 t are required to move
