Abstract:The objective of this study was to advance sustainable forestry development through the creation of mechanical equipment, taking into account forestry operational methods. A suspended automatic feeding and retracting excavation device for tree pits was engineered, and its interaction with soil was investigated by integrating the Discrete Element Method (DEM) with Multi-Flexible Body Dynamics (MFBD). Based on simulation results, the research explored the impact mechanisms of the machine on soil transportation, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
