Effects of central tire inflation systems on ride quality of agricultural vehicles
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 and, consequently, a smoother ride. The CTIS improved the ride of the vehicle by 99% over properly inflated tires on average, and by 177% when not in resonance. 2004 ISTVS. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Finite Element Analysis for Estimating the Effect of Various Working Conditions on the Temperature Gradients Created Inside a Rolling Tire
Periodic deformation of a tire during its rolling motion causes energy dissipating and heat generation due to hysteretic nature of the rubber. The increase in tire temperature may have disastrous effects on safe service life and safety of vehicles. In this study a numerical simulation based on finite element method is used for evaluating the effect of various working conditions on temperature f...

Occurrence of top down and bottom up fatigue cracking in asphaltic pavements is common. Conventional pavement analysis methods ignore the existence of cracks in asphaltic layers. However, it seems that the responses of cracked pavement would not be the same as a pavement without crack. This paper describes effects of crack type, position and length, and vehicles tire inflation pressure and axle...
