While the heights and numbers of tires in the assembly line are changing, the traditional methods are difficult to identify the types of the tires, so an indirect tire identification method is proposed to identify the types of the tires, which uses the widths of the tires, the diameters and the shapes of the hubs to classify the tires. First, the tires are identified according to the widths and...

Nowadays, non-pneumatic tires are becoming an increasingly likely alternative to pneumatic tires. The function of compressed air has been taken over by the belt and elastic structure (materials used shape components). research presented in paper was carried out quasi-static conditions. research's aim compare radial stiffness, hysteresis selected parameters contact patch two four interchangeably...

Between May 18 and December 4, 1986, 79 seagoing containers and their contents of 22,051 used tires were inspected for adult mosquitoes as well as eggs and larvae. Of the total inspected, 5,507 tires (25%) contained significant amounts of water. No adults or eggs were found. Fifteen tires contained mosquito larvae that were identified as Ae. albopictus, Ae. togoi, Culex pipiens complex, Tripter...

In this paper, we address the problem of trajectory tracking control autonomous vehicles by considering nonlinear characteristics tires. By influence tires’ dynamics on steering stability, proposed predictive controller can track desired and velocity in presence road curvature while minimizing lateral deviation. First all, a hierarchical structure is adopted, which upper-level used to calculate...

The efficacy of alpha-cypermethrin (Cyperthor) and lambda-cyhalothrin (Demand) to prevent mosquito larval colonization of water-containing receptacles was investigated using 2 differing applications in disused car tires in Darwin, Australia. Insecticide treatments were applied uniformly to the inside surfaces of 2 categories of tires: 1) dry tires that were partially filled with water 24 h afte...

The efficacy of maximum label rates of bifenthrin applications to dry tires to prevent Aedes mosquito breeding was investigated by field colonization and bioassay trials in shaded and unshaded locations. Aedes notoscriptus and Culex quinquefasciatus larvae were the most abundant species present in the field colonization trial. Colonization and survival of Ae. notoscriptus larvae to the late ins...

A sweep net with a flexible plastic frame was compared to a dipper for sampling efficacy for Aedes aegypti larvae in different-sized tires. When known numbers of mosquito larvae were introduced into tires, from 2 to 6.8 times more larvae were recovered by sweeping than by dipping. Sediment in the tires significantly reduced the recovery of larvae by both methods. Sampling efficacy was affected ...
