Abstract
Dynamic forces acting on tractors and implements are caused by, among other things, the unevenness of roads and field. This paper describes methods for the measurement and the mathematical representation of road and terrain profiles. The profile is regarded as a stochastic curve so that autocorrelation and power spectral density functions can be determined. The paper discusses the characteristics of different “agricultural profiles” and indicates how these can be used for the mathematical simulation of the dynamics of agricultural equipment.
