Experimental data modelling off-road vehicle travel

AI Thread Summary
Experimental data on off-road vehicle travel in clay is scarce, particularly regarding tire and soil parameters such as pull, torque, shear strength, sinkage, slip, and deflection. The discussion highlights the challenges of modeling soil behavior in off-road traction scenarios. Participants express difficulty in locating relevant raw data from previous experiments. The need for comprehensive datasets to better understand off-road vehicle dynamics in clay is emphasized. Access to such data would significantly aid in advancing research in this area.

Hi everyone,
I am looking for any available experimental data which models off-road vehicle travel in clay and measures tyre and soil parameters. Parameters I am looking for include pull, torque, shear strength of the soil, sinkage, slip and deflection. If anyone knows of any available raw data from experiments which have been conducted in the past it would be of great help as I am finding it difficult to find anything of relevance!

Soil is tough to model in an off road traction sense.
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Carburetor cfm rating -- adding more air to intake manifold'

Carburetor CFM A Holley Carb rated at 500 cfm 2 barrel carb has venturi diameter of 1.3/8". There are 2 barrel carbs with 600 cfm and have 1.45 diameter venturi. Looking at the area the 1.378 bore has 5.9 sq. Inch area. The 1.45 dia. has 6.6 sq. inch. 5.9 - 6.6 = 0.70 sq. inch difference. Keeping the 500 cfm carb in place, if I can introduce 0.7 sq inch more area in the intake manifold, will I have the same potential horsepower as a 600 cfm carb provide? Assume I can change jetting to...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
