The spray pattern characteristics of a number of di!erent series of #at fan nozzles were investigated in two ways. The "rst method was to measure the distribution by means of a classic patternator with collecting cylinders. The second method consisted of numerical simulation of the distribution, by
Unwanted vertical and rolling rigid-body motions and excessive horizontal vibrations of the spray boom are one of the major causes of irregular spray deposit in the "eld. To investigate the e!ects of boom vibrations on spray liquid distribution, mathematical models of the sprayer dynamics have been
In this paper, a hybrid model of a spray boom with cable suspension is developed. It combines an analytical modelling procedure with identi"cation techniques to cope with the limited power in the excitation actuator. The analytical model was used to optimize the passive boom suspension, while the id
To prevent local under-or over-application of chemicals, a spray boom must be kept parallel to the soil. On a slanted "eld, the operator, driving a sprayer equipped with a passive boom suspension, has to turn the boom manually in a skewed position. This paper presents the development of a slow activ
