ABSTRACTThis paper deals with the modeling of loose soil (sandy, muddy, etc.) When an object moves on such grounds, the object's and the soil's movement both depend the mutual physical interactions, and therefore are very dificult to achieve with kinematic or geometric models.We use a particle-based dynamic modeler and achieve a discrete model of plasticity, which accounts for the influence of the soil on objects moving on this soil, but also for the influence of the object on the movement and the shape of the soil. Thus we have simulated soil compression and piling, vehicles leaving tire traces, spinning, skidding and even sinking. This first step is the simulation of the soil-object system at a discretization scale that can be termed "intermediate". A subsequent step consists of the simulation of a finer physical soil model in order to account for smaller-scale dynamic phenomena.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
