A recent trend in the development of off‐highway construction equipment, such as
excavators, is to use a system model for model‐based system design in a virtual …

The paper is about finding the global optimum for a wheel loader work cycle in a gravel
application. This includes simulating the gravel and extracting the trajectories for the main …

This study evaluated newly proposed Human–Machine Interface (HMI) design concepts for
improving the ergonomics of hydraulic excavators. The design concepts were based on an …

This study investigates longitudinal whole-body vibration in agricultural tractors powering a
large square baler. The aim is to test the hypothesis that four-wheel drive has an influence …

Energy management strategies for a power-split hydraulic hybrid wheel loader are studied
in this paper. The differences between the powertrain and the energy management system …

This research investigated how machine operator expertise, strategies, and decision-making
can be integrated into operator models that simulate authentic human behavior in …

Analytical optimal solution to the energy management of hybrid electric vehicles is of interest
from theoretical and practical perspectives. Particularly, effort has been made to derive …

In the sector of mobile hydraulics, valve controlled systems are predominant. In these
systems the load force and speed are adjusted by control valves. In machines where …

Powertrain electrification is an effective solution to reducing emission of mobile machines. In
this paper, an electric-hydraulic hybrid drive for wheel loader propulsion system is studied …

The main focus of this paper is to estimate the potential increase in fuel efficiency and
productivity by means of an operator assistant system, in a wheel loader working in a bucket …
