Abstract:

A multi-chambered wheel assembly may include a wheel rim and a tire mounted on the wheel rim. The tire and the wheel rim may define an interior chamber. A divider wall may be disposed in the interior chamber. The divider wall may define a fill chamber and a gas cavity. A gas valve may be communicated with the gas cavity. The gas valve may be configured to allow pressurized gas to be introduced into the gas cavity. A fill valve may be communicated with the fill chamber. The fill valve may be configured to allow fill material to be introduced into the fill chamber.

International Classification:

G06T 11/20
G01N 33/24

US Classification:

345440

Abstract:

A method is provided for generating a ground compaction image. A pressure sensing panel is placed on a relatively rigid planar supporting surface. The pressure sensing panel is covered with a depth of particulate material. A loaded tire is placed on the particulate material, and a ground compaction image is generated with the pressure sensing panel. A ground compaction display may be created by superimposing the ground compaction image on a physical three-dimensional model of an interface between the particulate material and the loaded tire.
