2. Agricultural tractor performance fueled with proportions of biodiesel
ABSTRACT Among the fuel sources used nowadays, biofuels stand out for being renewable and biodegradable. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the performance and smoke opacity of an agricultural tractor in soil tillage activities, depending on the biodiesel blends and the engine rotation. Were used six blends of soy (S) and murumuru (M) biodiesel and s

3. ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF AGRICULTURAL TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE AND FULL POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT The efficiency of agricultural tractor transmission has been improved over the years, with new concepts such as Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) and Full Powershift (FPS) evolving in advanced technologies. Both options seek to offer the farmer greater operational results with lower energy expenditure, necessitating studies to assess the effe

4. MONITORING TRACTOR PERFORMANCE USING SHEWHART AND EXPONENTIALLY WEIGHTED MOVING AVERAGE CHARTS
ABSTRACT Statistical process control has been widely used in agricultural operations for monitoring and improving process quality. This study aims to evaluate the Shewhart and exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts to monitor the performance of an agricultural tractor–planter set. The design is completely randomized based on the assump

6. PREDICTING THE PERFORMANCE PARAMETERS OF CHISEL PLOW USING NEURAL NETWORK MODEL
ABSTRACT This study examines the capability of an artificial neural network (ANN) approach using a backpropagation-learning algorithm to predict performance parameters for a chisel plow at three field sites with differing soils. The draft force, effective field capacity (EFC), fuel consumption rate (FC), overall energy efficiency (OEE), and rate of plowed so

7. Development of a low-cost alternative for the monitoring of the ore hauling production indicators in small-scale mining
Abstract Small and medium-sized mining represent an important part of a country's min eral economy. These companies, although substantial and numerous, have low invest ment potential in their development through new technologies. One of the problems small and medium mining companies face is the ore hauling production monitoring. This operation alone can cons

8. INTERFERENCE OF THE NUMBER OF REMOTE CONTROL VALVES IN USE ON THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF AN AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR WITH PRODUCTIVITY MANAGEMENT
ABSTRACT The hydraulic remote control system allows the transfer of energy from the engine through a flow of hydraulic oil to engines and implements pulled by agricultural tractors, which can interfere with its energy and operational performance. This study aimed to evaluate the interference of the number of remote control valves in use on the operational an

9. Fatores de emissão de compostos carbonílicos medidos em um túnel do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, em condições reais de dirigibilidade
Real-world vehicle emissions of carbonyls compounds (CC) were determined at the Rebouças Tunnel, Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). The tunnel is a two-bore tunnel with three lanes in each direction and has a length of 2840 m, divided in two sections. On average, approximately 5,000 vehicles (95% light duty) were passing the tunnel per hour. Sixteen samples were simu

10. Increased power efficiency in mining by using high-fidelity haul truck simulation
Abstract The current economic and political scenario in Brazil has allowed small, medium and large companies to adopt cost cutdown and productivity increase strategies. Diesel fuel consumption by off-highway haul trucks stands for one of the largest costs at the Sossego Mine operational management department. Based on this fact, as well as on the 8% increase

11. K-NEAREST NEIGHBORS METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF FUEL CONSUMPTION IN TRACTOR-CHISEL PLOW SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT Most important farm operations require a significant amount of energy, and this consumes a major portion of the farm's budget. Consequently, analyzing the fuel consumption of agricultural machinery for farm operations of different sizes makes it possible to predict fuel consumption to set an appropriate budget for energy. The main purpose of this st

12. ENERGY PERFORMANCE IN DISC HARROWING OPERATION IN DIFFERENT GRADIENTS AND GAUGES
ABSTRACT The operational performance of the agricultural tractor can be increased by adjusting parameters such as tire inflation pressure, axle mass distribution and gauge opening, which is a very divergent factor in controlled-traffic production. The objective of the experiment was to measure the energy performance of a 93 kW agricultural tractor in interme
