Abstract
A dynamic interaction between crawler shoes and road has been made clear by our theory of crawler propulsion, which was constructed in our first report. In order to complete the theory numerically, modellings of a vehicle body and a joint of each element are discussed and applied to a power shovel. The application has given the dynamic ground pressure profile, which could not obtain under previous theories. A comparision between experimental and numerical results has verified an efficacy of our theory. This theory is useful for the design of crawler-type vehicles.
