Every time you see one of the CATs® clearing the hill at university of the snow, you probably don't see anything amazing about it. However, caterpillar tracks used on it are just ingenious and its invention is comparable to the invention of the wheel. Well, maybe not, but physics behind them is just as amazing.

During the research I found that there are not a lot of resources available on this topic. On this web-page I tried to assemble all the fun stuff there is. Enjoy!
