Off-road equipment designs contend with some unusual challenges and environmental conditions that are not seen by standard on-road vehicles. “Advanced Design Topics for the Engineering of Agricultural and Mechanical Equipment” offers design topic reviews related to areas that need special consideration within off-road applications. CAN-bus systems, soil compaction, composite bearings, field welding practices and weld strength in bending applications are examined, among other subjects. Providing comprehensive coverage of these matters with the current state-of-the-art technologies and best practices as they relate to equipment design for the agricultural, construction, forestry and mining industries, this book is well aligned with collegiate advanced agricultural equipment engineering design classes at the senior or graduate level.
