✦ Synopsis

This review paper summarizes various research "ndings on soil}tine interactions under di!erent test and soil conditions and rearranges them into de"ned categories in order to evaluate the research trends. E!orts have been made to correlate results observed by di!erent researchers, some of which were without proper raw data given or other supporting information. It is observed that not all the work has been conducted in a systematic manner. Some speci"c tasks and areas have been covered leaving gaps even at preliminary levels. The study reveals that the best solution might be to have a "nite number of arrays of tillage models based on speci"c conditions of soils, tools and failure modes. Heading toward a unique or a universal model would be an impossible task due to fuzzy conditions of the working environment. It is suggested that computer-aided methods be used to create a supporting database of model parameters in order to utilize them for any speci"c condition or design purposes.

The macropore and micropore domains of a soil system were considered to be hydraulically distinct. Drainage and solute transport through the soil were then characterized by mixed probability distributions. The components of the mixed probability distributions were used to represent the distinct proc
