Separation of tread-pattern noise in tire-pavement interaction noise
… of tire-pavement interaction noise is tire tread excitation. The tire tread contributes to the tire-pavement interaction noise mainly through two mechanisms: (1) tread block impact, and (2) the compression and expansion of the air in the tread groove at the contact patch. The tread pattern …

Tire-Pavement Interaction Noise (TPIN) Modeling Using Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
… For the same pavement, tires with different tread pattern and construction generate noise of different levels and frequencies. In the present study, forty-two different tires were tested over a range of speeds (45-65 mph, i.e., 72-105 km/h) on a non-porous asphalt pavement (a section of U.S. …

Developing a Vehicle Hydroplaning Simulation using Abaqus and CarSim
… by lack of traction on wet surfaces. The tire tread pattern, load, inflation pressure, slip and camber angles influence hydroplaning to a great extent. Finite Element Analysis, although computationally expensive, provides an excellent way to study such Fluid Structure Interactions (FSI) between …

Tire Contact Patch Characterization through Finite Element Modeling and Experimental Testing
… The footprint shape and stress distribution pattern are very important factors that go into assessing the tire's rate of wear, the vehicle's fuel economy and has a major effect on the vehicle stability and control, especially under severe maneuvers. In order to study the contact patch …

A Wave Propagation Approach for Prediction of Tire-Pavement Interaction Noise
… excitation of the tire due to the impact of the tread-pattern blocks in the contact patch region is characterized and coupled to the structure of the tire. Finally, a Boundary Element Method is implemented in order to compute the vibration-induced noise produced by the tire. All the modeling …

Investigation Into Use of Piezoelectric Sensors in a Wheeled Robot Tire For Surface Characterization
… sensor were placed circumferentially along the tread and an unlaminated sensor was placed along the sidewall. A slip ring transferred the signals from the tire to the robot. There, the signal conditioning circuit extended the time constant of the sensors and filtered electromagnetic …

Tire Footprint Analysis Based on Image Processing Techniques
… for the measurement of contact area between the tread of the tire and a rigid transparent surface. To this end, constructing an indoor test rig is required. In this research, a three-dimensional drawing software Autodesk Inventor has been used to analyze a customized testing facility. An indoor …
