1 Terramechanics V Note - I haven t posted the slides from Tuesday because there were a number of typos (and outright mistakes) that were (almost) all corrected on Thursday. This set of slides are the corrected slides from both Tuesday and Thursday in the appropriate order to make a full set of slides on terramechanics. I know this is late (and I apologize for that), so if you would like extra time on the problem set, take it with no penalty. I d rather you understand and do it right than worry about grades at this point. U N I V E R S I T Y O F MARYLAND 1 Terramechanics V ENAE 788X - Planetary Surface Robotics
