Pulling Force

Abstract Pulling force required for operations such as tillage is a result of the interaction between the tractor’s wheel drive and soil surface limited by various factors, such as the rolling resistance and slip of the wheel drive. In this research, the traction performance of tractors with different driving systems (four-wheel drive, rear wheel drive, and front wheel drive) was investigated. Test parameters included different tractor forward speeds (1.26, 3.96, and 6.78 km·h−1), tire inflation pressures (170, 200, and 230 kPa), ballast weights (0, 150, and 300 kg), and aforementioned driving systems, as well as required drafts (2, 6, and 10 kN). For each experiment, two indices of slip and rolling resistance were measured. The results of this study showed that the four-wheel-driving system indicated a low slip at similar pulling forces. In order to achieve a low slip, the four-wheel driving system did not necessarily need to add the ballast weight or to reduce the inflation pressure. The four-wheel driving system showed lower rolling resistance than the other two systems. Slip and rolling resistance of wheels were predicted using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). It was found that ANFIS had a high potential for predicting the slip (R2 = 0.997) and rolling resistance (R2 = 0.9893).

Conventional approaches to vehicle traction and propulsion analysis have used spread-sheets or numerical integrations owing to the difficulty in deriving closed-form solutions. This is inconvenient if a parameter is to be varied, and it is even more difficult when multiple parameters of a complex model are evaluated at the design phase. In this paper, it is intended to formulate two non-linear differential equations representing road load and power consumption. By expanding inertia force, air drag, rolling resistance, gravitational force and tyre tractive force, the equations can be simplified as functions of velocity v, i.e. s 1 v = s 2-s 3 v2 and m v = (-r 1 v3 - r 2 v + r 3)/v respectively. With these two equations, engineers can use either numerical or analytical methods to study key parameters at the design phase. To demonstrate the effectiveness of these equations, Wright State's electric car model is used. The results for front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive cases are presented.

Drawbar Pull

An analytical model to simulate the traction performance of mechanical front wheel drive MFWD tractors was developed at the Agroscope Reckenholz-Tänikon ART. The model was validated via several field tests in which the relationship between drawbar pull and slip was measured for four MFWD tractors of power ranging between 40 and 123 kW on four arable soils of different texture (clay, clay loam, silty loam, and loamy sand). The pulling tests were carried out in steady-state controlling the pulling force along numerous corridors. Different configurations of tractors were considered by changing the wheel load and the tyre pressure. Simulations of traction performance matched experimental results with good agreement (mean error of 8% with maximum and minimum values of 17% and 1% respectively). The model was used as framework for developing a new module for the excel application TASCV3.0.xlsm, a practical computer tool which compares different tractor configurations, soil textures and conditions, in order to determine variants which make for better traction performance, this resulting in saving fuel and time, i.e. reducing the costs of tillage management.

The Impact

Regenerative braking is applied only at the driven wheels in electric and hybrid vehicles. The presence of brake force only at the driven wheels reduces the lateral traction limit of the corresponding tires. This impacts the vehicle lateral response, particularly while applying the regenerative brake in a turn. In this paper, a detailed study was made on the impact of regenerative brake on the vehicle lateral response in front wheel drive and rear wheel drive configurations on dry and wet asphalt road surfaces. Simulations were done considering a typical set of vehicle parameters with the IPG CarMaker® software for different drive conditions and braking configurations along the same reference track. The steering wheel angle, yaw rate, lateral acceleration, vehicle slip angle, and tire forces were obtained. Further, they were compared against the conventional all wheel friction brake configuration. The regenerative braking configuration that had the most impact on vehicle lateral response was analyzed and response variations were quantified.

This paper introduces the novice concept of “Eco-hybrid Two wheeler” which is a combination of two systems i.e. petrol and electric system. This hybrid vehicle will make use of both technologies. Petrol system will be used for rear wheel drive and the electric system for front wheel drive. The batteries will be automatically charged when the vehicle runs on petrol system and that stored power will further be used for running the vehicle on electric system and so running of vehicle on electric system will be free of cost and pollution free also. The most attractive thing is that the batteries can also be recharged from electric supply.

Main Components

The rainy season will have a severe problem to the transportation sector (including heavy-duty trucks) in the off-road area in Indonesia, especially in areas that do not have permanent access roads (asphalt or concrete roads). For heavy vehicles, especially oil palm transport trucks will experience such obstacles, including slippage when crossing muddy dirt roads, and it will have an impact on the logistics delivery process. Therefore, it is necessary to design a support system, especially on the wheels, to reduce the risk of skidding or rolling on truck-type vehicles. In this work, the design of the anti-slip shoe wheels of the colt diesel double type truck (CDD) is used on the rear-wheel-drive as a tool for handling the slippage. In this design, the maximum traction factor of the wheels based on the calculation on the rolling resistance should be higher than 594 kg. The next step is to determine the value of soil cohesion and soil internal friction angle obtained from the previous studies. In this study, a calculation simulation was carried out to accomplish the design of the main components of the anti-slip of a truck wheel in the form of a traction rod fin. The design is namely U channel profile steel based on SNI 07-0052-2006 type U50, U65, and U80 with dimensions of the fin depth (z) are 3.8 cm, 4.2 cm, and 4.5 cm and length of 30 cm. The results show that the three types of U channel iron used for the anti-slip shoes are useful for freeing trucks from slippage with a total load of 12 tons. Thus, the truck will be safe when crossing the muddy roads with clay, muddy clay, and sandy loam under the following conditions: minimum cohesion number of 0.008 kg/cm2, minimum internal friction angle in the soil of 4.631°, and the maximum water content of 59.6%.

The power system structure of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) critically affects the performance of the vehicle. This study presents a power-integrated transmission mechanism that can provide six basic operating modes that can be further classified into 15 sub-modes. Switching clutch conditions helps transmission achieve speed and torque coupling. The proposed mechanism has CVT capability and an extended range capacity, and it is applicable to front-wheel-drive, rear-wheel-drive, or four-wheel-drive HEVs. A performance simulation on power and economy via Matlab and Cruise software demonstrates that the performance of the proposed transmission mechanism meets the target. Therefore, the mechanism is a feasible candidate for use in HEVs.

The rains will make a serious problem for the transportation sector in Indonesia, especially in areas that do not have permanent access roads (asphalt or concrete roads). Heavy vehicles such as oil palm trucks will go into the skid when crossing muddy dirt roads, and it makes an impact on the logistics delivery process. It is necessary for designing a support system, especially on the part of the wheel, to reduce the risk of skidding or rolling. Anti-slip shoe wheels of the colt diesel double (CDD) type truck is used on the rear-wheel-drive as a tool for handling slippage. Calculations and corrections are performed for maximum traction of the ground rolling resistance at ≥ 396 kg. Furthermore, the value of soil cohesion and soil shear angle was determined from the previous studies. In this study, a calculation simulation was carried out to obtain the design of the main components of an antislip wheel of a truck, which is in the form of a traction rod fin using steel UNP SNI 07-0052-2006 with a fin depth of 4.5 cm and a length of 20 cm. These dimensions are effective enough to increase the truck wheel traction of 8 tons when used to cross muddy roads with a maximum water content of 59.6% and a minimum cohesion value of land (C) of 0.108 kg/cm2
