One pneumatic wheel, four metal-elastic wheels, and two instrumented vehicles were laboratory tested in a fine sand to determine their relative performance and to establish a better understanding of the basic principles of the interaction of very lightly loaded wheels with a soil whose properties were varied to include the probable range of lunar soil properties. Programmed-slip tests were conducted with the single wheels and the vehicles, the latter being tested on both slopes and level surfaces. (Author)
