Increasing the load significantly affected the tire’s contact length on soil (P = 0.0010); however, tire inflation pressure did not significantly affect the contact length on soil (P = 0.0609). Soil rut depth and tire-soil deformed volume were not significantly affected by vertical load and tire inflation pressure.

The paper proposes a method of assessing the mobility level of the light UGV‘s tracked running gears in terms of their ability to overcome terrain obstacles. A model of rubber track system was created in the MSC ADAMS environment. A track-ground contact was also modeled, defining the traction force based on the Wong equations. For four different chassis models (rigid construction, bogies solution – rigid and elastically mounted to the frame and rocker-bogie construction), with two track tension variants, the ability to overcome five terrain obstacles was checked, taking into account three different types of soil. The solutions were accessed on the basis of parameters of general efficiency of overcoming obstacles, driving force and slip values, as well as the distribution of track pressures on the ground. The best solutions for each criterion were indicated. The simulation results showed an improvement in the driving properties with the use of elastically suspended elements. The results also emphasized the negative impact of increased track tension on overcoming obstacles and the impact of ground characteristics on the slip values of the running gear.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Terramechanics","volume":"112 ","pages":"Pages 1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138564319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A scarcity of accurate discrete element simulation parameters for this soil type restricts computational modeling. The study was focused on red clay soil with a moisture content of 12.50% ± 1% and a measured repose angle of 35.54°. The soil's inherent physical properties were identified through experimental assessments. Soil contact mechanical parameters were obtained from the GEMM database, and optimal contact parameter ranges were determined using Steepest Ascent Experiments, with the simulated soil particle repose angle serving as the response value. A second-order regression model was developed using a quadratic regression rotation orthogonal combination test. By taking the actual repose angle as the optimization criterion, parameters were optimized. The optimal contact mechanical parameters in EDEM simulations were identified as: JKR surface energy at 8.981 J/m<sup>2</sup>, recovery coefficient at 0.474, dynamic friction coefficient at 0.196, and static friction coefficient at 0.45. The model yielded a repose angle of 36.21°, closely corresponding with the observed value, with a relative error of 1.80%.

By expanding the range of applicability and improving accuracy, the proposed method provides a more reliable and robust approach to evaluate soil compaction quality. To train the estimation model, numerous datasets of noise-free waveform data are numerically generated by solving the equations of motion of the mass–spring–damper system of a vibratory roller. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed technique, a field experiment is conducted. A good correlation between the estimated and measured values is demonstrated by the experimental results.
