Row Crop Tractor with Simscape
This example models a tractor with configurable four wheel steering that can drive on flat and uneven terrain. You can configure driver inputs, scene where the tractor is driving, and the maneuver.
The Simscape Multibody Tire Model is tested under various conditions:
  • Develop operator assist algorithms within Simulink
  • Evaluate powertrain architectures with CVT models, including power split designs.
  • Improve operator comfort by tuning chassis and cabin suspension designs.
  • Test on uneven terrain by importing scanned data and using the Simscape Multibody Tire Model
  • Create virtual test tracks by defining terrains in MATLAB
