In order to study the effect of contact length of tire on tractive performance of tractor, experiments were conducted using a single wheel tester fitted with 13.6–28 bias ply tire in a soil bin in soft soil condition. Contact length and contact width were measured at different normal loads (9.8 kN and 13.72 kN) and inflation pressures (83, 103, 124 and 138 kPa). Results showed that the contact length had higher influence on tire pulling ability and tractive efficiency as compared to contact width of the tire. An equation for predicting contact length was developed using XLSTAT software, with normal load and inflation pressure as an independent variables and contact length as a dependent variable. The model demonstrated high efficiency with a coefficient of determination (R2) 0.96, a percentage of variation 0.76 %, a root mean square error 10.841, and an adjusted R2 0.95. Additionally, a second-order polynomial equation was developed using curve fitter app to estimate drawbar pull of a tractor by keeping wheel slip and contact length as independent parameters. Validation with another set of data obtained for 14.6–28 tire yielded R2 0.93 and less than 4 % variation, thus indicated the model’s accuracy in predicting drawbar pull.

为了研究轮胎接触长度对拖拉机牵引性能的影响,在软土条件下,使用装有 13.6-28 斜交轮胎的单轮测试仪在土仓中进行了实验。在不同的正常载荷(9.8 千牛和 13.72 千牛)和充气压力(83、103、124 和 138 千帕)下测量了接触长度和接触宽度。结果表明,与轮胎接触宽度相比,接触长度对轮胎牵引能力和牵引效率的影响更大。使用 XLSTAT 软件,以正常载荷和充气压力为自变量,接触长度为因变量,建立了一个预测接触长度的方程。该模型的确定系数 (R2) 为 0.96,变异百分比为 0.76%,均方根误差为 10.841,调整后的 R2 为 0.95,显示出较高的效率。此外,还使用曲线拟合器应用程序开发了一个二阶多项式方程,通过保留车轮滑移和接触长度作为独立参数来估算拖拉机的牵引杆拉力。用 14.6-28 轮胎的另一组数据进行验证,结果 R2 为 0.93,变化率小于 4%,从而表明该模型在预测牵引力方面的准确性。

Legged robots exhibit superior adaptability to complex extraterrestrial environments compared to wheeled mobile robots. However, legged robots employed in planetary exploration face challenges in dealing with soft terrains. This paper focuses on investigating the issues of large foot sinkage and slip encountered by legged robots on soft terrain. Extensive experiments on quasi-static loading, loading with impact and tangential force have been carried out for both spherical and cylindrical feet. The variations in normal force, tangential force, and sinkage are meticulously recorded and analyzed. Foot-terrain interaction mechanics models are established to address scenarios involving substantial sinkage and sliding sinkage, leveraging the stress distribution characteristics of deformable soil. Accurate models are obtained through parameter identification utilizing experimental data, which can aid in the foot design of legged robots intended for planetary exploration. Based on the developed models and experimental data, a design optimization scheme for the coronal foot is proposed, leading to performance enhancements that are validated through experimental verification.

We propose a framework for discrete scientific data compression based on the tensor-train (TT) decomposition. Our approach is tailored to handle unstructured output data from discrete element method (DEM) simulations, demonstrating its effectiveness in compressing both raw (e.g. particle position and velocity) and derived (e.g. stress and strain) datasets. We show that geometry-driven “tensorization” coupled with the TT decomposition (known as quantized TT) yields a hierarchical compression scheme, achieving high compression ratios for key variables in these DEM datasets.

我们提出了一种基于张量-列车(TT)分解的离散科学数据压缩框架。我们的方法专为处理离散元法(DEM)模拟的非结构化输出数据而设计,证明了它在压缩原始数据集(如粒子位置和速度)和衍生数据集(如应力和应变)方面的有效性。我们展示了几何驱动的 "张量化 "与 TT 分解(称为量化 TT)相结合产生的分层压缩方案,为这些 DEM 数据集中的关键变量实现了高压缩比。

Modelling soil-rotor blade interaction of vertical axis rotary tiller using discrete element method (DEM) 利用离散元素法(DEM)模拟垂直轴旋耕机的土壤-旋耕刀相互作用

Vertical-axis rotary tillers are preferred over other soil-engaging tools for inter-culture operations due to their superiority in avoiding tillage pan formation, facilitating drainage, and operability at higher forward speeds. To optimize their design and operation, and to promote sustainable agricultural practices, a greater understanding of the kinematics, dynamics, and soil-structure interaction of vertical axis rotary tiller is required, along with the optimization of required energy. In this study, discrete element method (DEM) is used to analyse the interaction between soil and rotor blades, by incorporating the Hysteric Spring Contact Model along with linear cohesion model v2. Soil-rotor blade interaction DEM model is developed using Altair® EDEM® to analyse the effect of u/v ratio (2.13, 2.90, 3.70, and 4.44) and average operating depth (30 mm, 50 mm, and 70 mm) on draft and torque requirements for the rotor blade, as well as experimentally validating the simulation in a soil bin. In this study, lower u/v ratios in vertical axis rotary tillers demand higher torque for larger soil volumes. Additionally, torque rises with operating depth, owing to increased soil volume and strength. The simulated results closely followed the measured draft and torque for all combinations of u/v ratio and operating depth (R2 0.96 and 0.99). These findings indicate the DEM model as a dependable approach for modelling the performance of rotary tillers under different soil conditions.

由于垂直轴旋耕机在避免耕盘形成、促进排水以及在较高前进速度下的可操作性方面具有优势,因此与其他土壤耕作工具相比,垂直轴旋耕机更适合用于间作农业。为了优化设计和操作,促进可持续农业实践,需要进一步了解垂直轴旋耕机的运动学、动力学和土壤与结构的相互作用,同时优化所需的能量。本研究采用离散元素法(DEM)分析土壤与旋耕机叶片之间的相互作用,并结合 Hysteric Spring Contact Model 和线性内聚力模型 v2。使用 Altair® EDEM® 开发了土壤-转子叶片相互作用 DEM 模型,以分析 u/v比(2.13、2.90、3.70 和 4.44)和平均工作深度(30 毫米、50 毫米和 70 毫米)对转子叶片吃水和扭矩要求的影响,并在土壤仓中对模拟进行了实验验证。在这项研究中,垂直轴旋耕机的 u/v 比越低,土壤体积越大,所需的扭矩就越大。此外,由于土壤体积和强度的增加,扭矩会随着作业深度的增加而增加。在所有 u/v 比和作业深度组合下,模拟结果都与测量的牵引力和扭矩密切相关(R2 为 0.96 和 0.99)。这些结果表明,DEM 模型是模拟不同土壤条件下旋耕机性能的可靠方法。

Traditional plowing efficiency control methods are difficult to balance the tillage efficiency and uniform plowing depth, and the impact of the motor temperature rise on the control accuracy cannot be ignored during electric tractor operations. Therefore, a plowing drag-adaptive operation control method considering the motor temperature rise was proposed for an electric tractor equipped with a sliding battery pack. Firstly, a field-oriented control model with temperature compensation for the PMSM was developed based on the obtained winding resistances and flux links at different temperatures. Then, the driving torque and battery displacement were regulated to adapt the drag variation by the fuzzy neural network algorithm, allowing joint control of the speed and slip rate, and the simulation analysis was performed. Finally, a field plowing test was conducted. The results showed that the traction efficiency is increased by 23.33 % compared with those without control, and when the motor temperature rises, it can be compensated for temperature to output the required torque accurately, and the average relative errors in both speed and slip rate are reduced. The proposed method can improve the slip and greatly enhance the plowing operational stability, which provided technical support for the automatic precision operation of electric tractors.

传统的耕作效率控制方法难以兼顾耕作效率和均匀耕深,而且在电动拖拉机作业过程中,电机温升对控制精度的影响不容忽视。因此,针对配备滑动电池组的电动拖拉机,提出了一种考虑电机温升的耕作阻力自适应运行控制方法。首先,根据所获得的不同温度下的绕组电阻和磁通链路,为 PMSM 建立了带温度补偿的面向磁场的控制模型。然后,通过模糊神经网络算法调节驱动扭矩和电池位移以适应阻力变化,从而实现速度和滑移率的联合控制,并进行了仿真分析。最后,进行了田间耕作试验。结果表明,与无控制相比,牵引效率提高了 23.33%,而且当电机温度升高时,可以通过温度补偿准确输出所需的转矩,速度和滑移率的平均相对误差都减小了。所提出的方法可以改善滑移,大大提高犁地作业的稳定性,为电动拖拉机的自动精准作业提供了技术支持。

The working parameters of vibratory rollers have an important effect on the compaction quality. The traditional method of obtaining the best working parameters through field tests is time-consuming and laborious. In order to determine the best working parameters more conveniently and accurately, a mechanical-hydraulic-finite element co-simulation method is proposed in this paper. This method considers the effect of the hydraulic system on vibration compaction and makes the simulation result as close to the actual condition as possible. By analyzing the change of soil stress and settlement, the effect regulation of working parameters on compaction quality is obtained. The results show that the proposed co-simulation method can accurately reflect the real conditions, and the best compaction quality can be achieved when the walking speed is 3 km/h, the vibration frequency is 24 Hz, and the amplitude is 2.5 mm. The research provides a reference for improving the compaction quality and compacting-related simulation.

Study of passive steering mechanism for small Mars surface exploration rovers 小型火星表面探测车被动转向机制研究

Planetary surface exploration rovers are required to have the ability to travel over uneven ground such as sandy or rocky terrain. In addition, to maintain long-term functionality under severe mass constraints, the rover must be highly reliable with a simple configuration. The reduction in the number of actuators will also contribute to a reduction in the number of electrical components involved and improve reliability. This paper proposes a lightweight and simple traveling and steering mechanism that combines a path-following system based on the difference in rotational speed of the left and right wheels when traveling in a curve and a passive Ackermann mechanism without an actuator, assuming a small exploration rover of a size and mass that can be mounted on a Japanese launch vehicle. We also propose a correction method to improve the path-following performance. We also developed a prototype wheeled rover of the target size and weight, and tested and evaluated the effectiveness of the proposed method in following the target path and overcoming obstacle on simulated soil.

Instrumented single tire soil bin testing was conducted on a rigid surface and artificial soil by vertically loading a radial tire (LT235/75R15) to two tire vertical loads (6 kN and 8 kN) inflated to three levels of tire inflation pressure (179, 241, and 283 kPa). Lowering the tire inflation pressure by 37 % resulted in 26 % (6 kN vertical load) and 39 % (8 kN vertical load) greater contact lengths (P < 0.05). The 2-D contact area on artificial soil (initial bulk density of 1.51 Mg/m3) was significantly affected (P < 0.05) by tire inflation pressure for each load case. 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. Measured tire contact area on soil surface was 3.3 times the contact area on the rigid surface, suggesting tire-soil interaction interface properties on deformable soil are better than using the gross flat plate for evaluating low ground pressure tire technology effects on traction and reducing soil compaction.

在刚性表面和人造土壤上进行了单个轮胎土壤仓测试,将子午线轮胎(LT235/75R15)垂直加载到两个轮胎垂直载荷(6 kN 和 8 kN),并将轮胎充气压力提升到三个级别(179、241 和 283 kPa)。将轮胎充气压力降低 37%,接触长度分别增加了 26%(6 千牛垂直负载)和 39%(8 千牛垂直负载)(P < 0.05)。人工土壤(初始体积密度为 1.51 Mg/m3)上的二维接触面积在每种载荷情况下都受到轮胎充气压力的显著影响(P < 0.05)。增加载荷会明显影响轮胎在土壤上的接触长度(P = 0.0010);然而,轮胎充气压力不会明显影响轮胎在土壤上的接触长度(P = 0.0609)。土壤车辙深度和轮胎-土壤变形量受垂直荷载和轮胎充气压力的影响不大。测量到的轮胎与土壤表面的接触面积是刚性表面接触面积的 3.3 倍,这表明在评估低地压轮胎技术对牵引力和减少土壤压实的影响时,在可变形土壤上的轮胎与土壤相互作用界面特性优于使用总平板。

Rubber tracked running gears are widely used in high-mobility Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) to increase obstacle negotiation possibility in urban and rural terrain. 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.

橡胶履带运行装置被广泛应用于高机动性无人地面车辆(UGV)中,以增加在城市和乡村地形中的障碍谈判可能性。本文提出了一种从克服地形障碍能力的角度评估轻型无人地面运载工具履带运行装置机动性水平的方法。在 MSC ADAMS 环境中创建了橡胶履带系统模型。还建立了履带与地面接触的模型,并根据黄氏方程定义了牵引力。针对四种不同的底盘模型(刚性结构、转向架解决方案--刚性和弹性安装在车架上以及摇臂-转向架结构)以及两种轨道张力变量,考虑到三种不同类型的土壤,检查了克服五种地形障碍的能力。根据克服障碍的一般效率参数、驱动力和滑移值,以及履带压力在地面上的分布情况,确定了解决方案。每个标准的最佳解决方案均已确定。模拟结果表明,使用弹性悬挂元件可改善行驶性能。结果还强调了增加轨道张力对克服障碍的负面影响,以及地面特征对传动装置滑移值的影响。
