A finite element modeling of tire using Ansys is used to analyze the free vibration of radial pneumatic tires. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of pneumatic tires are investigated. The effects of some parameters such inflation pressure, tread pattern, ply-angles and thickness of belts on the natural frequency of tires are investigated. Keywords— natural frequency, inflation pressure, tre...

The natural frequencies and mode shapes of pneumatic tires are predicted using a geometrically accurate, three-dimensional finite element modeling. Tire rubber materials and cord layers are represented independently using “shell element” available in COSMOS. The effects of some physical parameters such as the inflation pressure tread pattern, thickness of belts and ply angles to the natural ...

In this work, two high order sliding mode observers under cascade form are proposed in order to estimate the important states and inputs affecting the lateral dynamics of twowheeled vehicles. The first observer is based on a vision system and is used to estimate the lateral velocity of the vehicle. This velocity is considered as an additional measure for the second observer which is designed to...

-The sidewall is one of the regions where service failures occur in a pneumatic tire. Knowledge of the stresses or strains developed in the sidewall under varying service conditions is required if such pneumatic-tire failures are to be avoided. This paper describes an experimental investigation into the effect of inflation pressure, vehicle load and camber angle on the sidewall-surface strains ...

A new type of non-pneumatic tire with a flexible spoke structure is proposed to solve traditional pneumatic defects, such as easy bursting, the requirement real-time maintenance keep pressure, and complex manufacturing process. The thermal mechanical coupling characteristics are studied in detail obtain steady-state temperature field distribution pattern under different operating conditions. un...

Non-pneumatic tire has been widely used due to their advantages of no run-flat, need air maintenance, low rolling resistance, and improvement passengers comfort its better shock absorption. It variety application in the military vehicle, earthmovers, lunar rover, stair climbing vehicles etc. Recently UPTIS (Unique Puncture-Proof Tire System) non pneumatic introduced for passenger vehicles. In t...
