A new dual steering system in a compact tractor

To achieve optimal controllability in a dual steering tractor (a four-wheel, iso-diametric tractor equipped with a dual-hydraulic steering system), this study proposes a coordinated approach that combines experimental testing (using a special agricultural tractor) with numerical analysis of the enti...
