An Overview of the Finite Element Method on the Tool-Soil Interacting Problem of Tillage

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article introduced the up-to-date research progress on the tool-soil interacting problem of tillage; and investigated the situation of constitutive relation usage in the finite element method (FEM). A review including the dynamic effect on the performance of tillage operation with FEM has been conducted. It showed that the virtual reality method with FEM had made much progress in evaluating the tool draft, distribution position of stress and strain, displacement fields and acceleration in soil-tool interactions, soft ware package of computer aided design of tillage tools; it will be a low cost and high efficiency assistive tool in the development procedure of tillage tools, and can be applied to study and analyze the performance of resulting prototypes.
