Abstract Vehicle tire performance is an important consideration for vehicle handling, stability, mobility, and ride comfort, as well as durability. All forces exerted on the vehicle, except aerodynami....
Abstract Road test is hitherto the most common approach to assess vehicle durability and structural performance. Moreover, the measurements serve as the final validation of the road load simulation, w....
Abstract Road surface characteristics directly influence vehicle safety and performance, and its knowledge can be instrumental to road transportation system safety. This work focuses on the developmen....
Abstract Understanding the behavior of the contact patch can help to identify various parameters like pressure distribution, contact patch dimension, and tire forces, which play a crucial role in vehi....
Abstract Few studies have investigated the vibration characteristics of motorcycle tires. Tires have high damping characteristics; therefore, resonance peaks do not appear clearly, and it is difficult....
Abstract The variation of inflation pressure has an important effect on the longitudinal slip characteristics of tires that can affect the braking performance of the vehicle, so the influence of infla....
Abstract To enhance the stability of a ground vehicle subjected to a tire blowout, a corrective safety control system is designed and evaluated. Along with the Dugoff tire model, a nonlinear planar se....
Abstract Tires are one of the most important vehicle components since they significantly affect vehicle attributes such as handling stability, steering controllability, ride comfort, and structure dur....
Abstract The mechanical properties of tires are critical to the driving performance of vehicles. Currently, the tire pressure control system (TPCS) has been applied to achieve different control object....
Abstract Intelligent tires, as an emerging technology, have great potential for tire-road contact information identification and new vehicle active safety system design. In this article, a tire-road f....
Abstract This article introduces a finite element (FE) approach to determine tire deformation and its effect on open-wheel race car aerodynamics at high vehicle velocities. In recent literature tire d....
