A simplified FE tire model has capability to solve a large deformation of a tire on a vehicle running simulation with acceptable computation time. We tried to simulate a vehicle cornering by using simplified FE tire models and a vehicle model which has a detailed kinematical structure of suspensions.1 Introduction Introduction of CAE in an automobile design is progressing in various fields, and...

Discarded vehicle tire casings are an important artificial habitat for the developmental stages of numerous vector mosquitoes. Discarded vehicle tires degrade under ultraviolet light and leach numerous soluble metals (e.g., barium, cadmium, zinc) and organic substances (e.g., benzothiazole and its derivatives [BZTs], polyaromatic hydrocarbons [PAHs]) that could affect mosquito larvae that inhab...

results the results showed that the highest compressive force exerted on the back was equal to 4002 n and the lowest force 1425 n. moreover, 76% of the tasks were reported to have the highest compressive force greater than the recommended limit; 72% of the tasks had an li 1 - 3 and 28% of them had an li less than 1. there was a weak direct correlation between compressive force and rwl. backgrou...

recently, mixtures of clay-tire chips are used as construction material in civil engineering projects. with respect to the tending for using these materials, it is necessary to know their mechanical behavior. thereby, a number of undrained monotonic triaxial tests are carried out on the specimens of pure clay and clay-tire chip mixtures. mixed specimens prepared by mixing pure clay with 10%, 20...

This study focuses on particulate matter emissions from tire–road contact and their investigation using an internal drum test bench. The bench is equipped with real-road surfaces has been upgraded to enable real-time measurements of matter. It was found that the road surface changes during tests due constant rolling over, influencing level significantly. To account for this effect, micro roughn...

Materials such as waste tire chips were widely used to improve the strength of soil. The objective of this study is to discuss the residual strength or steady-state behavior of sand-waste tire chip mixtures. A series of undrained monotonic triaxial compression tests were conducted on reconstituted saturated specimens of sand and sand-tire chip mixtures with variation in the tire-chip contents f...

in this study, a three wheel dynamic model refer to a field tractor with an implement was developed to control the tractor in the field accurately. main difference between a tractor and in-road vehicles is implements connected to the tractor. these implements exert lateral and draft force to the tractor. in order to investigate these kinds of forces, behavior of implements was simulated like a ...

The problem of mechanical excitation a suspended tire is studied experimentally and theoretically. considered as an elastic waveguide. Its numerical description provided by the Waveguide Finite Element Method (WFEM). A case δ-shaped pulse considered, which corresponds to short kick applied some point tire. paper focuses on asymptotic analysis formal solution. Mainly, forerunner evaluated, fast ...

Instrumentation to collect ISO2631 ride data was installed on a CaseIH 8950 tractor equipped with a central tire inflation system (CTIS). Data were collected at two speeds on three courses representing degraded secondary roads, moderately rough fields, and the toughest of farming conditions. Reductions in tire pressures available with central tire inflation resulted in greater tire deflections ...
