🚜 Heavy Crawler on Dune Sand: Bekker Sinkage and Drawbar Pull (2D)
Side view of a heavy tracked machine crossing loose desert sand, sinking into it under its own weight while the tracks slip and push it forward. Set the mass, the track length and width, the stiffness, cohesion and friction angle of the sand and the slope, and see the ground pressure, the sinkage, the compaction resistance, the thrust limit and the working slip with the drawbar pull there. The sinkage law, the compaction work, the thrust integral and the working slip are checked numerically, with four in-page numerical checks.
