A multiscale model for real-time simulation of terrain dynamics is explored. To represent the
dynamics on different scales the model combines the description of soil as a continuous …

The field of terramechanics focuses largely on two types of simulation approaches. First, the
classical semi-empirical methods that rely on empirically determined soil parameters and …

In recent years, realistic simulation of vehicles on soft terrain has increasingly gained
importance due to its use in operator training, mission planning and design. In this work we …

Developing excavation autonomy is challenging given the environments where excavators
operate, the complexity of physical interaction and the degrees of freedom of operation of …

In recent years, realistic simulation of vehicles on soft terrain has increasingly gained
importance due to its use in operator training, mission planning and design. In this work we …

Estimation of cost and duration of grading a particular area provides important information
for contractors and construction machine manufacturers. In this study, cost and duration of …

This chapter presents a simulator for disaster response robots based on the Choreonoid
framework. Two physics engines and a graphics engine were developed and integrated into …

This article describes the real-time simulation of a tire model for the o-highway sector. The
ohighway area is characterized by soft surfaces. The additional deformation of the ground …

La transicion hacia una miner´´ ıa subterranea cada vez m´ as profunda requiere
automatizar la ma-´ quinaria para poder operar en condiciones demasiado peligrosas para …

In this paper, a combination of marching cubes and the constructive solid geometry method
were merged to develop a simple, fast, and accurate method to estimate the shape of the …
