How do you measure soil stress and deformation under wheel loads? What are the actual values of stresses and deformation in soil or snow under a passing wheel? Answering these and other questions, this book describes methods and devices for soil stress and deformation measurements and presents numerical data from full-scale field experiments. It offers novel ideas and designs of soil and snow pressure sensors as well as an optoelectronic system for soil deformation determination and wheel force transducers. It also explains how to create dynamic models of wheel¿soil systems based on experimental data.
