Soil compaction caused by timber harvesting in central Appalachian hardwood forests
… were examined to determine the amount of soil compaction associated with each harvest type. A manual system of chainsaw and cable skidder, along with a mechanized system consisting of feller-buncher and grapple skidder were monitored in two central Appalachian hardwood forest sites. …

Analysis of soil compaction and furrow depth from planter row unit
… such as furrow formation, seed placement, and soil-conditioning during planting. It affects seed spacing and singulation, root growth, emergence, crop health, yield, and field traffic management. This study analyzes how the planter row unit’s operation affects soil compaction, furrow depth, and …

Multipass effects of wheel and track type vehicles on soil compaction
… moisture level, and their interactions on soil compaction. During the study two procedures commonly used for soil bulk density determination were also compared. Treatments at the following levels were applied: i) Soil moisture: Two levels ii) Vehicle type: wheel and track type iii) Traffic …

Finite element analysis of multipass effects of vehicles on soil compaction
… the multipass effect of rubber-tired vehicles on soil compaction. The wheel-soil interaction was modeled as an axisymmetric problem by approximating the elliptical wheelsoil contact area with an equivalent circular area. A hyperbolic stress-strain relationship was used to model the nonlinear …

nEstablishing soil compaction thresholds for the M1A1 Abrams tank at Camp Minden, Louisiana
Soil compaction is a primary impediment to vegetation regeneration on military land used for M1A1 Abrams tank training. As such, there is a need to identify soil compaction thresholds and develop guidelines with which military range managers can determine appropriate timing and intensity of …

Evaluation of Soil Compaction, Plant Density, and Resistance to Phytophthora Root Rot in Soybeans
… megasperma f. sp. glycinea Kuan and Erwin, is a soil-borne fungal disease of soybean Glycine max (L.) Merr. . Studies were conducted to determine the effects of soil compaction on phytophthora incidence, to determine if reduced soybean stand due to phytophthora is the only factor responsible for …

The effects of winter cover crops and soil compaction treatments on soil properties and soybean production in Illinois
… crops (WCC) are suggested as a tool to alleviate compaction while improving soil properties. However, WCC have also been reported to have detrimental effects on the following crop. Our goals in this study were twofold: i) to evaluate the short-term ability of radish and companion cover crops to …
