MECHANIZATION IN AGRICULTURE

Study of a working body for clearing damaged soil from inside a crater

  • 1 National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, Ukraine

Abstract

This article presents the design of a working body for removing the damaged soil layer inside a crater, which allows for field studies of the process of removing the damaged soil layer from inside a crater formed as a result of explosions. A methodology has been developed for conducting experimental studies of the working body for removing the damaged soil layer from inside a crater.
