Abstract
The objective of this study is to measure rim surface adhesion and to calculate motion resistance produced by the adhesion acting on the rim section of a circular wheel under sticky soil condition. The mechanisms of generating motion resistance by the adhesion on a circular wheel were analyzed through wheel motion. Experiments were conducted in an indoor soil bin that contains loam soil. A circular steel wheel was used for experiments. A part of the wheel rim was cut off, and transducers which can measure normal and tangential forces were installed in this section. Calculated motion resistance at a part of the rim section was superposed for one wheel rotation as motion resistance produced by the rim surface adhesion. The motion resistance increased with increasing the dynamic load. Ratio of the motion resistance to total motion resistance measured by an axis transducer was about 23 to 46 % in this study.
