Tires are, in essence, a composite structure made of reinforced elastomers. As in other
composite structures, the accuracy of finite elements (FEs) in predicting the performance of a …

Due to efficiency in prediction of cornering and braking behavior of tires and moderate
requests towards computing resources, steadystate rolling analysis (SSRA) using the finite …

A method is presented here for modeling and predicting the rolling and yaw behavior of an
aircraft tire which is subjected to a strong inflation pressure and a concentrated load on the …

As traffic grows by leaps and bounds, deterioration of asphalt surface layers emerges as the
primary cause of road network costs. A deep understanding of the tire–pavement interaction …

In order to accurately predict vehicle dynamic responses when traversing high obstacles or
large bumps, appropriate tyre models need to be developed and characterised. Tyre models …

This paper investigates the possibility of using a coarse finite element model with bulk
material properties, to model the vertical force–displacement characteristics of a tyre, for the …

The thermomechanical behavior of an aircraft tire is predicted, using experimental devices, a
model based on finite element software and an appropriate method of expressing the heat …

The numerical modelling of the internal heat generation in passenger vehicle tyres using
finite element analysis is a well-known numerical approach. However, this application is …

Understanding the mechanisms for road surface degradation requires an examination of
asphalt layer responses under realistic rolling tire loads. In this study, we proposed a novel …

Dynamic performance characteristics of wheeled vehicles highly rely on the forces/moments
arising from interactions between the pneumatic tyres and the terrains. Reliable models are …
