Influence of wheel configuration on wheelchair basketball performance: wheel stiffness, tyre type and tyre orientation.
The aim of the current investigation was to explore the lateral stiffness of different sports wheelchair wheels available to athletes in 'new' and 'used' conditions and to determine the effect of (a) stiffness, (b) tyre type (clincher vs. tubular) and (c) tyre orientation on the physiological and biomechanical responses to submaximal and maximal effort propulsion specific to wheelchair basketba...
متن کاملReduction of aircraft tyre wear by pre - rotating wheel using
Heavy aircraft main landing gear tyres skid immediately after touchdown as result of the high slip ratio between the tyres and runway, which lead to tyre wear and smoke. In this paper, the tyre wear is modelled on the Archard theory using ANSYS mechanical transient, to reveal the wheel’s dynamic and the tyre tread wear. The wheel’s dynamic and the amount of wear are calculated for initially sta...
متن کاملMethod for estimating tyre cornering stiffness from basic tyre information
This paper proposes a simple mathematical tyre model that estimates tyre cornering stiffness. The model is derived by considering the tyre to be a combination of two independent systems. The sidewalls are assumed to be negligibly stiff in the lateral direction, and hence their influence on the lateral dynamics of the tyre will be ignored. The belt and tread area of the tyre will be considered t...

متن کاملRacing wheelchair rear wheel alignment.
This technical note describes a time-saving device for aligning the rear wheels of a racing wheelchair. The newly-developed analog alignment device is compared to the now standard discrete alignment device. The analog alignment device is found to reduce the time needed to align the rear wheels by nearly 75 percent, while increasing the accuracy of the alignment. The device does not noticeably a...
