“…Increasing compaction by changing the driving system can be attributed to the different slippage level in each of these systems. The 4WD system included the lowest slippage of 14%, which was less than two other systems, hence a minimum bulk density of 1155 kg/m 3 was generated in this system [34]. On the other hand, due to the movement of the drive wheels on the undisturbed soil in the mode of FWD, the slip of the drive wheels in this mode was greater than the rear-wheel drive (RWD) mode.…”

To determine the effect of the tractor driving system type on the soil compaction and soil behavior a series of tests was conducted using Goldoni 240 tractor with a power rate of 30.8 kW and included four similar tires at three different driving systems (4WD, rear-wheel drive (RWD) and front-wheel drive (FWD)). To evaluate these systems’ effects on soil compaction, tests were conducted at three soil moisture contents (10, 15 and 20% d.b.), three tire inflation pressures (170, 200 and 230 kPa), and three tractor speeds (1.26, 3.96 and 6.78 km/h). Soil bulk density was measured at three average depths of 20, 30 and 40 cm. To evaluate soil compaction, cylindrical cores were used and to assess soil behavior during this process, the soil displacement in a three coordinate system was measured using three displacement transducers. It was found that the 4WD system created the least bulk density of 1155 kg/m3, while the FWD system led to the highest density of 1241 kg/m3. Maximum vertical soil compression of 55 mm occurred for the FWD system and it declined to 43 and 36 mm in RWD and 4WD systems, respectively. Soil displacement in the horizontal and lateral directions was larger for the FWD system in comparison to the other systems. With increment of speed and depth soil compaction decreased. Minimum bulk density of 1109 kg/m3 was occurred at velocity of 6.78 Km/h using the 4WD system, also with this system at the depth 40 cm density was 1127 kg/m3. While at velocity of 1.26 Km/h and depth of 20 cm soil density was 1190 kg/m3.

“…Mekanize tarımda makine performansının iyileştirilmesi ve az enerji tüketimi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Mekanize tarımda kullanılan bir traktörün yakıt sistemi üzerinde yapılan çalışmada, arkadan çekişli (RWD), dört çekişli (4WD) ve önden çekişli (FWD) traktör sürüş sisteminin, toprak işleme çalışması sırasında traktör performansı ve yakıt tüketimi üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirilmiştir [67]. Daha sonra sürüş sistemi tipinin etkisini araştırmaya yönelik arazi deneyleri yapılmıştır.…”

The studies covered elliptical gears focus on the design of tooth profiles and the researches increase about prototype manufacturing of elliptical gears. Elliptical gear tooth profile, which is developed based on the fact that the tooth profiles of elliptical gears are not identical to cylindrical gears; It is obtained by shaping tooth flanks with involute curves in accordance with the rolling method on the section ellipse with a rack or cylindrical spur gear cutter. It has been determined that the use of CNC electrical discharge machining (EDM) in the manufacture of elliptical gears has preferably become, also, the manufacturability of elliptical gears in standard modules by developing electronic gearboxes for hobbing machines. Elliptical gear pairs are used into different machines, mechanism and equipments, especially flow meters, and pumps with elliptical gear pairs are seen to be widespread. In today's world, where energy efficiency is of utmost importance, accurate and precise measurement of high fluid amounts and eliminating the losses in the fluid transfer of enterprises are also required. In this review study, the design of elliptical gears, traditional and non-traditional manufacturing methods, strength and vibration analyzes, and various industrial applications in the literature were evoluated and the common result of the literatüre works were obtained. It is predicted that elliptical gears will be an indispensable part of many smart products that contain mechanical parts in the near future.

Energy management in crop production system is an essential component in sustainable agricultural production systems. The aim of study was to evaluate the impact of flat planting (FP), ridge planting (RP) and direct planting (DP) methods under reduced tillage system (RTS) on the energy balances used in silage corn production, planted after winter wheat crop in Potohar region. The study was carried out under complete randomized design (CRD) with three replications at Koont research farm Chakwal, PMAS-Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi during 2018 and 2019 crop seasons. Results of this study indicated that the specific energy value of reduced tillage flat planting was calculated as 0.44 MJ-kg-1 , ridge planting as 0.40 MJ-kg-1 , and direct drilling was calculated as 0.46 MJ-kg-1. Comparing the energy output/input rates, this rate was determined as 9.34 in reduced tillage flat planting, as 10.36 in ridge planting, and as 9.06 in direct drilling. In all methods, it was shown that fertilizer energy had the maximum rate of application among the total input energies. Corn cultivation with ridge sowing is more energy efficient and profitable production technique under rainfed agriculture in Potohar region.
