Abstract :In this study, the cultivator duckfoot types manufactured by different firms (A, B, C, and D) were examined. The stresses and deformations (displacements) of these cultivator shares applied under 6 different loads were investigated using the SolidWorks program with the finite element method (SEM). The different cultivator duckfoot shares were fixed from two holes with to the fixed leg and the six different static loading scenarios and forces (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 and S6; S1=500 N, S2=1000 N, S3=1500 N, S4=2000 N, S5=2500 N, S6=3000 N) were applied to the cutter blade of cultivator shares, respectively. According to the results of this study, the maximum equivalent stress and the deformations (displacements) occurring on the cultivator duckfoot shares under S6 loading force were found from 76.135 to 169.996 MPa and from 0.126 to 0.232 mm, respectively. The highest maximum equivalent stress result was found in B duckfoot share, while the lowest deformation (displacement) result was found in A share among the duckfoot shares. The maximum equivalent stress values are less than the yield stress of share materials for duckfoot types of the cultivator.Keywords : Toprak İşleme, Bilgisayar destekli analiz, Yer değiştirme
