Agricultural tractors drive and operate both off-road and on-road. Tire-road interaction significantly affects the tractive performance of a tractor, which is difficult to predict numerically. Many empirical models have been developed to predict the tractive performance of tractors using the cone index, which can be measured through simple tests. However, a magic formula model that can determine the tractive performance without a cone index can be used instead of traditional empirical models as the cone index cannot be measured on asphalt roads. The aim of this study was to predict the tractive performance of a tractor using the magic formula tire model. The traction force of the tires on an asphalt road was measured using an agricultural tractor. The dynamic wheel load was calculated to derive the coefficients of the traction-slip curve using the measured static wheel load and drawbar pull of the tractor. Curve fitting was performed to fit the experimental data using the magic formula. The parameters of the magic formula tire model were well identified, and the model successfully determined the coefficient of traction of the tractor.

To evaluate the tractive performance of tracked trencher on seafloor surface, a new shear stress-displacement empirical model was proposed for saturated soft-plastic soil (SSP model). To validate the SSP model, a test platform, where track segment shear test can be performed in seafloor soil simulacrum (bentonite water mixture), was built. Series shear tests were carried out. Test results indicate that the SSP model can describe the mechanical behavior of track segment with good approximation in seafloor soil simulacrum. Through analyzing the main external forces applied to seafloor tracked trencher during the uniform linear trenching process, a drawbar pull prediction model was deduced with the SSP model. A tracked walking mechanism of the seafloor tracked trencher prototype was built, and verification tests were carried out. Test results indicate that this prediction model was feasible and effective; moreover, from another side, this conclusion also proved that the SSP model was effective.

Performance of a four- wheel tractor fabricated by Tongyang Moolsan Co., Ltd, Korea was tested in Thailand during May-June 2000. Wheel slip and field capacity were measured in three fields using different traction devices and implements. The tractor worked satisfactorily in the test conditions. Wheel slip of 26.05-33.63 % and the field capacity of 0.17 - 0.20 ha/hr were observed during plowing operation. Further tractive performance tests using a three-point linkage configuration are recommended in Thailand field conditions. Different designs of cage wheels are recommended to be tested to optimize the tractive performance.

Using the modified DEM (Distinct Element Model), which we proposed, the effect of cross section of tire lug on the tire performance was simulated. Though the DEM has an advantage over the FEM when it is applied to simulate the behavior of discrete assembly of particles such as soil, there was still a problem in the case of conventional DEM, that the simulated movement of particles was too free. We constructed a new mechanical model (modified DEM) which can take account of the effect of adhesion between particles. It is shown that the soil deformation is simulated by the modified DEM better than the conventional DEM. Comparing the simulated soil reaction to the tire lug with the experimental results, the adequate DEM parameters were found. It is also indicated possible to find the effect of lug cross section shape on the tractive performance of tire by the DEM simulation.

최근 바이오폴리머 소재를 이용하여 자연 흙의 강도와 식생의 생장을 증진하는 새로운 제방 소재가 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 바이오폴리머 혼합토를 친환경 제방 재료로 활용하기 위해 혼합토로 조성된 식생 매트의 한계 소류력을 평가하였다. 혼합토는 베타글루칸을 주재료로 모래와 황토를 혼합하여 조성하였다. 실규모 시험체를 제작하여 혼합토를 3 cm 도포하였으며 식생과 매트를 이용하여 4개의 시험체를 제작하였다. 실규모 실험에 의해 손상과 토양유실을 관측하여 한계 소류력을 결정하였다. 식생 호안의 특성상 식생의 피복도에 따라 영향을 받기는 하지만 식생이 활착된 경우 개략적으로 한계소류력 42 N/㎡, 한계유속 4 m/sec을 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 매트공법이 적용된 경우에는 뿌리와 매트의 결합으로 침식저항성이 강화됨을 확인하였다.
