Tires are a critical component of military wheeled vehicles and exposed to the threat fragment caused by explosion warhead on battlefield. To study ballistic impact response vehicle tires under fragment, experiments numerical simulations spherical fragments impacting were carried out. The damage mode was analyzed. effects obliquity, tire thickness, mass dynamic tires, as well limit velocity, re...

In tire industry, it is very crucial to evaluate physical and mechanical properties of the rubber which is used for production of the tire, to ensure the quality of the final product. Resilience is an important property of a rubber, which cannot be evaluated through direct measurement in production cycle in this industry. Therefore, non-destructive ultrasonic testing, which has been used in man...

with many years of construction and application of common concrete, researchers have always been searching for a better composition. one of the notable ideas for achieving such a composition is using recycled materials. one of the materials which is suitable for environment and constant development is damaged tires .for studying mechanical properties of concrete containing tire particles, a ser...

The heavy vehicle industry has today no requirement to provide a tire pressure monitoring system by law. This has created issues surrounding unknown tire pressure and thread depth during active service. There is also no standardization for these kind of systems which means that different manufacturers and third party solutions work after their own principles and it can be hard to know what work...

the tire-mechanics models have been developed for the study of wheel movement on the road or soil surface while these models are unlikely to describe the motion of wheels on uneven surfaces. due to dynamical complexity of this phenomena and the importance of this subject for farm conditions and the wheel carrier devices, the present research aimed to investigate the effects of several parameter...

In this paper, a realistic simulation model for Wheeled Mobile Robot (WMR) is given by a dynamical system that switches between three models corresponding to three different tire/road contact conditions: ideal condition, skidding condition and slipping condition. Then, an algebraic based numerical identification for the discrete state (tire/road contact condition) of this switching system is pr...
