This report is a comprehensive collection of technical papers written by the Staff of the Land Locomotion Laboratory. Its purpose is to offer, in a single volume, a picture of the state-of-the-art of soil-vehicle mechanics. The following topics are covered: Description of Soil Stress-Strain Behavior in Vertical and Horizontal Directions and Its Use in Vehicle Performance Prediction; The Analysis of Wheel Performance in Soft Soil; Vehicle Ride Characteristics Studies; Application of Dimensional Analysis in Land Locomotion Mechanics; Remote Area Soil Strength Prediction by Means of Soil Analogs; Description of a Portable Soil-Strength Measuring Apparatus; Field Tests with a Wheeled Soil Strength Measuring Device; Discussion on a Terrain Profile Recorder; and Novel High Mobility Vehicle and Component Concepts.
