TY - JOUR PY - 1981// TI - A device for assessing the safe descent slope of agricultural vehicles JO - Journal of agricultural engineering research A1 - Spencer, H. B. A1 - Owen, G. M. SP - 277 EP - 286 VL - 26 IS - 3 N2 - The steepest slope which a 2-wheel drive tractor can safely descend usually determines that on which it can travel safely in any direction. This is also often the case with a 4-wheel drive machine. Estimation of this slope from deceleration measurements made on level ground is suggested as a means whereby a driver could judge whether or not he could travel in safety on a particular slope.
