| Abstract | The performance of wheels operating in loose granular material for the application of planetary vehicles is well researched but little effort has been made to study the soil shearing which governs traction. Net traction measurements and application of energy metrics have been solely relied upon to investigate performance but lack the ability to evaluate or describe soil-wheel interaction leading to thrust and resistances. The complexity of rim and grouser interaction with the ground has also prevented adequate models from being formulated. This work relies on empirical data gathered in attempt to study the effects of rim surface on soil shearing and ultimately how this governs traction. A novel experimentation and analysis technique was developed to enable investigation of terramechanics fundamentals in great detail. This technique, the Shear Interface Imaging Analysis Tool, is utilized to provide visualization and analysis capability of soil motion at and below the wheel-soil interface. Analysis of the resulting displacement field identifies clusters of soil motion and shear interfaces. Complexities in soil flow patterns greatly affect soil structure below the wheel and the resulting tractive capability. Grouser parameter variations, spacing and height, are studied for a rigid wheel. The results of soil shear interface analysis for wheels with grousers are presented. The processes of thrust and resistances are investigated and behavior characterized for grousered wheels. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
