AbstractThe main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effects of a jumping action of a tracked vehicle mounted with a vertical oscillator on vibro-compaction of a high lifted decomposed granite. A vibro-compaction test was executed using a model tracked vehicle of 4.9kN weight under a condition of frequency of 16Hz and load ratio of maximum vertical exciting force to vehicle weight of 0.2–2.0. As a result, it was observed that both the amount of sinkage of terrain surface and the dry density of soil increased hyperbolically with increment of the load ratio and the dry density distribution with depth became uniform for the whole depth of the soil stratum. It was confirmed that the volume shrinkage of soil was succeeded by the propagation of acceleration to deep stratum due to the jumping action and the dilatancy phenomenon due to an alternative shear stress. The optimum load ratio obtaining a maximum dry density at the frequency of 16Hz was judged to be 2.0 within this experiment. In the application of these test results to an actual prototype tracked vehicle of 39.2kN weight, it was estimated that the degree of compaction of a high lifted soil stratum of 90 cm became over 90% at the load ratio of 2.0.
