Abstract
Measuring and analysing the roughness of agricultural field and road have great significance for studying the characteristics of tractor dynamic response. This study was designed to analyse and compare the roughness characteristics of agricultural field and asphalt road profiles. A profiling apparatus was developed to measure field and road surface profiles of parallel tracks. The profile measurements were conducted in a grass field, a corn stubble field, a harvested potato field and on an asphalt road. The root mean square value and two spectrum parameters of surface profiles were calculated and analysed to investigate the roughness characteristics of fields and asphalt road. The results of the study indicate that for the values of the agricultural field and asphalt road surface roughness, waviness and roughness index are both positive associated with the root mean square value. Most of the waviness values of all measured field profiles were less than 2 with the average of 1.8, while the waviness values of all measured asphalt road profiles were greater than 2 with the average of 2.08. The roughness of both field and asphalt road profiles can be distinguished by the power spectral density fitting method. However, it has better performance in characterizing asphalt road profiles than characterizing field profiles with the power spectral density fitting method.
