Tracked vehicles simulation

Is there anyone who have simulated the tracked vehicles like tanks?

In terms of controlling the vehicles, the caterpillar might not be a serious problem.

However, if I want to focus on its traction control, then it matters.

Currently, what I can think of is making a lot of skinny rectangular pieces along with a lot of hinge joints.

Before trying to do that, I just would like to know if someone did similar things or this is a reasonable idea or there exists another better idea. Thank you.
