Why this matters.
Planetary surface systems must operate in loose granular terrain where traction, sinkage, excavation resistance and material handling are tightly coupled. The research asks how a rover can excavate effectively without treating mobility and excavation as separate problems.
From question to testable system.
The project combines mechanical design, controlled soil testing, wheel–terrain measurements and system-level analysis. Use this page to explain your wheel-integrated excavation concept, experimental variables and the physical mechanisms observed during testing.
