Cold regions mobility models Richmond, Paul W ; Shoop, Sally A ; Blaisdell, George L

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Hanover, NH Cold Regions Research & Engineering Laboratory, 1995; CRREL report 95-1, Description: 72 sSubject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P0109:95-01Location: Abstract: This report annotates the cold regions mobility prediction routines included in the CAMMS/ALBE mobility models. It further explains the development of the algorithms that are used in these models to describe the interaction of a vehicle with terrain that has been affected by cold weather. The following terrain conditions are discussed: undisturbed snow (shallow and deep); disturbed snow (moderately trafficked and hard packed); ice; and thawing soils. Several combinations of substrates are also considered. A stand-alone computer model is included.
