Vehicle mobility on highly organic soils

Abstract: Current political climates have generated a renewed interest in the northern regions of the world. These areas are known to have soft marshy peat, highly organic soils, and cold harsh winter climates. Currently vehicle mobility modeling capability on this terrain is limited and existing studies do not include current military vehicles. This work presents mobility experiments of current military vehicles at multiple field sites containing peat or highly organic soils that can eventually be used to improve mobil… Show more

“…Current cold regions mobility models were based on vehicle testing from the 1990s to capture the behavior on snow and ice, freezing and thawing ground [11,12,13]. We have recently begun work to upgrade and validate these models for modern and over-snow vehicles, more accurately distribute the seasonal terrain properties and mobility predictions within a geospatial framework, and to include the highly organic peat and muskeg terrains of the far north [14,15,16].…”
