The rollover accidents in the tractor semi-trailer are often fatal and many factors could cause the tractor semitrailer rollover. In this paper, a rollover prevention control method was proposed based on real-time calculation of rollover index. The vehicle Center of Gravity CG height from the ground is an important parameter in the rollover index and it is estimated through lateral acceleration...

Parabolic geometries may be considered as curved analogues of the homogeneous spaces G/P where G is a semisimple Lie group and P ⊂ G a parabolic subgroup. Conformal geometries and CR geometries are examples of such structures. We present a uniform description of a calculus, called tractor calculus, based on natural bundles with canonical linear connections for all parabolic geometries. It is sh...

Since the mid 1990’s, advances in global positioning systems (GPS), microprocessors, actuators, controllers, plant/soil sensors and geographical information systems (GIS) have spawned the development of new, site-specific, variablerate techniques for chemical applications. At the same time, agricultural production has embraced other new technologies that increase the productivity of mechanized ...

using instrumented tractors to monitor and record spatial variations in performance parameters of tractor and implements during field operations, could improve productivity and the tractor efficiency. in the context of precision farming, this information can be used to map spatial variability of the parameters and to find the relations with changes in soil attributes (texture, moisture contents...

Introduction Direct energy expenses (diesel, gasoline, propane, electricity) total more than $1 billion annually for Iowa farmers. Farm management techniques such as adjusting tractor gear and throttle settings or reducing tillage depths can reduce diesel fuel consumption for row crop production. This study is being conducted over multiple years to measure the effects of energy management techn...

This paper mainly for the research of the tractor horsepower electric control system, Its control system were designed based on ARM and CAN bus technology, The main node controller uses chip LPC2294, LPC2294 has a high speed of operation, high reliability advantages. The design of the hardware circuitry and the communication protocols in system. Tests showed that the system has high reliability...

Let $R$ be a prime ring with extended centroid $C$, $H$ a generalized derivation of $R$ and $ngeq 1$ a fixed integer. In this paper we study the situations: (1) If $(H(xy))^n =(H(x))^n(H(y))^n$ for all $x,yin R$; (2) obtain some related result in case $R$ is a noncommutative Banach algebra and $H$ is continuous or spectrally bounded.

The aim of this paper and its prequel is to introduce and classify the irreducible holonomy algebras of the projective Tractor connection. This is achieved through the construction of a ‘projective cone’, a Ricci-flat manifold one dimension higher whose affine holonomy is equal to the Tractor holonomy of the underlying manifold. This paper uses the result to enable the construction of manifolds...
