Developing an analytical tyre model that estimates tyre forces using a least squares method

The use of control systems, especially vehicle dynamic control systems, is increasing at a remarkable rate. A key parameter that affects the performance of a vehicle dynamic control system is the interaction forces between the tyre and the road since these forces determine the acceleration, braking and steering properties of a car. Consequently, the accurate estimate of these forces is highly d...

Physical Factors in Tyre Traction

The ability of an automobile tyre to ‘grip’ the road and avoid skidding is ultimately dependent upon the events in the tyre-road interface. This seems obvious, and yet some 70 years after pneumatic rubber tyres were first put to use we are not able to explain fully the frictional processes between the tyre and the road. Over 650 papers have been published prior to 1970 on some aspect of tyre be...
