A Novel Method for Vibration Analysis of the Tire-Vehicle System via Frequency Based Substructuring
Noise and vibration transmitted through the tire and suspension system are strong indicators of overall vehicle ride quality. Often, during the tire design process, target specifications are used to achieve the desired ride performance. To validate the design, subjective evaluations are performed …

Effective Simplified Finite Element Tire Models for Vehicle Dynamics Simulation
… a methodology for modeling a pneumatic bias-ply tire with the finite element method for vehicle dynamics simulation. The tire as a load-carrying member in a vehicle system deserves emphasized formulation especially for the contact patch because its representation of mechanics in the contact patch …

A comprehensive analytical model for pneumatic tires
This study presents a comprehensive analytical tire model for both vehicle dynamic simulation and tire design. The model is composed of two parts--modeling of the contact mechanism and determination of the tire forces/moments. A static circular beam model is introduced for the contact mechanism, in …

Tire-Road Friction Coefficient Estimation Using a Multi-scale, Physics-based Model
The interaction between a tire and road surface is of critical importance as the motion of a car in both transient and steady-state maneuvers is predicated on the friction forces generated at the tire-road interface. A general method for predicting friction coefficients for an arbitrary asphalt …

Finite Element Modeling Of Tire-Terrain Dynamic Interaction For Full Vehicle Simulation Applications
Studying the kinetic and kinematics of the rim-tire combination is very important in full vehicle simulations, as well as for the tire design process. Tire maneuvers are either quasi-static, such as steady-state rolling, or dynamic, such as traction and braking. The rolling of the tire over …

Nonlinear finite element modeling and incremental analysis of a composite truck tire structure
… related to the static and dynamic properties of tires, which provide support and control for vehicles and which must possess good durability under various tire-road interactions and loading conditions. The tire characteristics are inherently dependent on various structural and geometric …

Experimental Investigation of the Tractive Performance of an Instrumented Off Road Tire in a Soft Soil Terrain
… of the interaction between a pneumatic tire and deformable terrain. A design of experiments has been implemented, that gives insight into the effect of individual tire and soil parameters, specifically wheel slip, normal load, inflation pres-sure, and soil compaction, as well as into the …

Separation of tread-pattern noise in tire-pavement interaction noise
Tire-pavement interaction noise is one of the dominant sources of vehicle noise, and one of the most significant sources of urban noise pollution. One critical generation mechanism of tire-pavement interaction noise is tire tread excitation. The tire tread contributes to the tire-pavement …
