Soil Studies - An Investigation into the Properties of the Soil-Wheel Interface. Part 2. Results of Tests with a Rotating Cone in Sand

Abstract

Using a rotating cone, a study was made to determine the velocity dependent shear property of various soils. In the wide variety of soils tested including clays, wet and dry sands, no discernible velocity dependent shear properties were measured.
