Interactive computer application for predicting performance indicators of a tractor-chisel plow system in c-sharp environment [electronic resource]

Includes bibliographic reference

An interactive computer application in C-Sharp language WaS developed to predict the performance indicator of a tractor-chisel plow system. Moreover, the purpose of such application was to aid agricultural engineers in the field of farm machinery management to select suitable inputs to make proper matching of a tractor and a chisel plow. The required equations were formulated using the obtained weights from a trained artificial neural network model that trained using actual data field experiments. The application predicts actual field capacity (ha/h) and fuel consumption per unit area (lit/ha). Tractor loading factor was the main issue in the present application since it was used as a regulator for determination of the required draft. The application displays a chart during simulation to show the intersect point between both, specific fuel consumption calculated by the application and specific fuel consumption calculated using the equation of ASABE standard
