This paper introduces a technique that relates the coefficients of the Magic Formula tire model to the physical properties of the tire. For this purpose, the tire model is developed by ABAQUS commercial software. The output of this model for the lateral tire force is validated by available tire information and then used to identify the tire force properties. The Magic Formula coefficients are o...

The 20-40mm particle size of crushed aggregate and rubber aggregate showed 100% passing but river sand showed zero%. The 10 mm particle size of river sand showed 100% passing. Hydraulic conductivity ranges from 0.5 cm/sec (0.2 inches/sec) for compressed 10–38 mm (0.4–1.5 inches) shreds to more than 20 cm/sec (8 inches/sec) for 25–64 mm (1– 2.5 inches) loose shred. Thermal conductivity varies fr...

submitted for consideration for the DRUID 2002 Summer Conference. “Industrial Dynamics of the New and Old Economy – who is embracing whom?” We would consider the paper relevant to either Theme B (“Production and Use of Knowledge in the Old & New Economy”) or Theme A (“Technical Change, Corporate Dynamics & Innovation”). The current debate of the ‘New Economy’ is largely dominated by approaches ...

waste tires, rubbers, plastic and steel materials, normally produced in every society, enter the environment and cause serious problems. these problems may, to some extent, be reduced by finding applications for them in engineering, for example, they can be used for geotechnical applications as backfill material and solving problems with low shear strength soils. such materials may be subjected...
