Multi-scale Finite Element Modeling of Rubber Friction Toward Prediction of Hydroplaning Potential
… predict the hyper-viscoelastic properties of the rubber. Using multi-scale modeling techniques, the friction coefficient between the tire and pavement, for wet conditions, is characterized via developing 2D and 3D model representing the rubber tread interacting with the rough surface. Using a tire …
