Along with the developing technology in rubber industry, use of natural and synthetic rubbers as well liquid has increased significantly recent years. The formulation tread compound, which directly affects performance a tire, is generally produced from rubbers. Intensive scientific studies have been carried out on because they reduce consumption process oils used tire production phase increase ...

This paper deals with the contribution of road surface microtexture to the relationship between tire/road friction and water depth. The main objectives are the estimation of local water depths trapped at the tire/road interface and the definition of a critical water depth which can be used for driver assistance and information systems. Tests are performed in laboratory. Specimens are slabs made...

The incorporation of ground tire rubber (GTR) in compounds results to reduced strength the vulcanizates. need improve properties vulcanizates containing GTR becomes necessary. This work evaluates effect hybrid filler reinforcement on abrasion resistance, hardness, heat build-up, dynamic set and compression solid tread compound 10 phr 20 60 mesh size GTR. used was carbon black/silica (CB/SiO­2) ...

The purpose of this study was to characterize the physical and chemical properties of particles generated from the interaction of tires and road surfaces. Morphology, size distribution, and chemical composition were compared between particles generated using different methods, including on-road collection, laboratory generation under simulated driving conditions, and cryogenic breaking of tread...

Intelligent tires can be employed for a wide array of applications ranging from tire pressure monitoring to analyzing tire/road interactions, wheel loading as well tread wear monitoring. In this paper we develop measurement system intelligent equipped with 3-dimensional piezoresistive force sensor. The output the sensor is segmented into revolution cycles, which are then represented by transfor...

Automotive tire tread depth has a major influence on car's safety and thus to be closely monitored. However, there is currently no on-board solution that can measure wear with an accuracy of less than 1 mm. TireEye optical device mounted inside the wheel well facing towards road. It records cross-section longitudinal groove extracts its outline by means adaptive Canny edge detection. The indica...
