Effects of Treader Design and Operating Variables on Force Prediction Equations in Oklahoma
Abstract
This research has led to a quantitative understanding of the effect of depth of tillage, forward velocity and angle of orientation on treader draft, side-draft and vertical force. General multiplicative force prediction equations were developed to explain how treader operating variables affect soil forces. It was necessary to develop two vertical force prediction equations due to the difference in point leading as compared to point lagging.
