To establish correlation between off-road performance of full-size vehicles and scale models in clay type soils by use of similitude analysis, U S Army Transportation Research Command (TRECOM) conducted series of vehicle performance tests in 3 types of cohesive soils for complete range of moisture content levels; investigation covered study of all soil parameters that affect vehicle performance in low, medium, and high cohesion disaggregated soils, including effects of vehicle weight, tire design, speed, slip, and soil characteristics on drawbar pull and tire sinkage; results and experience in testing techniques obtained.
