ABSTRACT |
Developing new concepts for the prediction of off-road traction is becoming essential as an increasing number of sport utility vehicles (SUVs), sport activity vehicles (SAVs), and other off-road vehicles arrive on the market. The prediction of off-road traction is a difficult problem because of the number of factors affecting wheel performance on soft soils or snow. Most of the existing methods for wheel-soil thrust prediction are based on Coulomb |
Key Words:
