Tractive performance of LGP-30 wheeled vehicle during straight motion on Sepang peat terrain in Malaysia

The tractive performance justification of an off-road vehicle is so important that it ensures the vehicle mobility over the unprepared peat terrain. Tractive performance of Low Ground Pressure (LGP-30) wheeled vehicle is investigated on the low bearing capacity moderate peat terrain in Malaysia....
