We are studying a hydraulic system design and vehicle dynamic modeling for a development of tire roller system, because those are very important in analysis of tire roller. Generally, tire roller is one of the useful machines in a road construction field and it technically applied for many other construction fields. Also, we conceptualize of new hydraulic and traction system, and define about t...

Hydroplaning is a unique phenomenon in which the water on a wet runway or highway is not displaced from the nominal tire-ground contact area by a rolling tire or by a moving but nonrotating (full-skidding) tire at a rate fast enough to allow the tire to make contact with the ground surface over its complete nominal footprint area, as would the case of operation on a dry surface. When hydroplani...

This work presents a single-chip sub-mm3 wireless pressure sensor suitable for tire pressure monitoring. The dynamic behavior and safety of an automobile tire is closely dependent on its inflation pressure: maintaining the manufacturerrecommended pressure is essential to prevent tire failure, provide stability, improve fuel efficiency and tire-life, and to reduce CO2 emissions [1]. Thus, Tire-P...

The coupling effect between tire and pavement is an intensively researched subject to analyse the dynamic interaction of the vehicle-pavement system. By considering the 11.00 R20 tire and expressway asphalt pavement, ABAQUS software was employed in this study to establish an improved model for simulating the coupling effect, in which the tire rubber was taken as a neoHookean material and the pa...

─ In a tire pressure monitoring system in which a pressure censor and a transmit antenna are contained in a tire, electromagnetic simulations of radiations from carcass embedded tires are requested. However, it is difficult to accurately determine these shielding effects. In this study, methods for performing accurate electromagnetic simulation by adopting the MoM scheme are determined. In the ...

A nonlinear model consisting “yaw, roll, longitudinal, lateral and pitch” has been developed in which, tire and suspension characteristics have been considered. Tire model is based on the elliptic concept and tire Calspan data. According to this tire model, cornering force and aligning moment are computed as a function of slip and camber (inclination) angles, normal load, tire adhesion characte...

A tire and landing gear test facility has been developed and incorporated into a Convair 990 aircraft. The system can simulate tire vertical load profiles to 250,000 lb, sideslip angles to 15 degrees, and wheel braking on actual runways. Onboard computers control the preprogrammed test profiles through a feedback loop and also record three axis loads, tire slip angle, and tire condition. The ai...

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...
