Finite element method for the study of air-cushion tracked vehicle-terrain interaction

This paper presents the numerical analysis by means of the finite element method (FEM) to perform experiment findings of a model tracked vehicle-terrain interaction. A static analysis was performed with three different vehicle loading conditions of 1.96 kN, 2.45 kN, and 2.94 kN, respectively, to obt...
