Abstract

In the
present study, a numerical model for wheel-snow interaction ispresented using
finite element method. For this aim, the model of tire is designed using
SolidWorks and ANSYS Design modeler. The analyses of the prepared models are
performed using ANSYS Explicit Dynamics considering Mooney- Rivilin tire model.
Frictional relationship between wheel and snow ground was established and snow
erosion is considered as linear, in the analyses.
To
validate the results, a comparison is carried out with available results.
Six different mesh sizes are considered in the
study, the effect of mesh sizing and mesh number on the accuracy of the
obtained results and solution time is discussed. Finally, it is concluded that models
with
0.025 m and 0.02 m mesh sizes give more accurate
results than the others and a strong linear proportion exists between the
number of iteration and the mesh size.
