A simulation model to predict agricultural tractor-semi-trailer combination traction performance under different operating conditions
≈ 0.84 between predicted and reference drawbar power values. The results demonstrate that the developed model provides realistic predictions of tractor-semi-trailer performance and can be used as a decision-support tool for evaluating transport operations and assisting in the design and selection of tractor-trailer combinations under varying soil and loading conditions.
