... tionally dependent on heterogeneous soil. Bidirectional roller MVs were found to vary by 100% due to transverse soil stiffness variability.
From page 4...
... Evaluation of Automatic Feedback Control-Based Intelligent Compaction The current technology for IC involves automatic feedback control (AFC) of excitation force amplitude (Ammann, Bomag, Case/Ammann, Dynapac)
