Abstract:During the primary cultivation by means of general-purpose ploughs, the circular disk knives do not provide a reliable cutting; with that, the traction resistance of plough is increased, productivity and quality of its work are reduced. The purpose of the research is to increase the operational efficiency, the quality of soil cultivation and to reduce the energy intensity of general-purpose ploughs equipped with disc knives. Different designs of knives are studied in order to find the optimal shape providing a… 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.
