Interaction between elements of the track ground contacting area with the soil at curvilinear motion of the timber harvesting machine

摘要

This article describes interaction between the tracks of the timber harvesting machine and the soil. It concerns the research of interaction of the elements of the ground contacting area of the tracks with the soil at curvilinear motion of the tracked timber harvesting machine. The expressions was found to determine relationship between the value of the longitudinal and lateral travel of an element of the track ground contacting area and the traveltime parameters of motion of the tracked timber harvesting machine and in turn characterize kinematics of the elements of the track ground contacting area at curvilinear motion of the machine.
