Review and Development on Terrain-machine Systems in China

The development and main research areas of terrain vehicle systems and the contribution of terramechanics to agriculture, forestry, military, transportation and so on were reviewed in this paper. The contribution of M.G. Bekker and other researchers to the development of terrain vehicle systems, as well as the foundation and the development of the International Society of Terrain Vehicle Systems (ISTVS) were also introduced. The society founded in 1962 has the members in more than 20 countries and is responsible for holding the international and regional conferences. The activities in the field of terrain machine from 1951 in China were also reviewed. The nine conferences have been held by the Society of Terrain Machine Systems in China from its foundation in 1982. Finally, the development of terrain vehicle systems in the future was discussed.
