Abstract

Currently in Mexico there is a great disparity between the production units of the agricultural sector since 80% of agricultural producers own less than five hectares with a production for subsistence. Therefore, the improvement and design of appropriate technologies for small farmers is an aspect that must be addressed. In this context, for design purposes, this work describes the dynamical analysis of a two-wheel tractor, which is used by small farmers in order to determine its dynamical behaviour due to internal and external excitation forces arising from engine and soil-structure interaction when using different implements. Experimental modal analysis techniques are applied to identify the most important modal parameters (resonant frequencies and modal dampings). In addition, operational modal analysis techniques are employed to evaluate the dynamic performance during typical functions. These information is considered in a system-theoretic approach for decision-making in the design and evaluation of this type of machinery.
