Compacted Snow Testing Methodology and Instrumentation
… 370-560 kg/m3. From a mobility perspective, the tires are the primary point of force and motion generation and their interaction with the terrain causes an increased reliance on the skill of the driver for safer mobility. Thus, standards like ASTM F1805 are implemented for the evaluation of …

Comparative Study of the Effect of Tread Rubber Compound on Tire Performance on Ice
… compound on the drawbar pull performance of tires in contact with an ice layer near its melting point. A set of sixteen tires of eight different rubber compounds were considered. The tires were identical in design and tread patterns but have different tread rubber compounds. To study the …
