▼ In any automotive system, the tires play a very crucial role in defining both the safety and performance of the vehicle. The interaction between the
tire and the road surface determines the vehicle's ability to accelerate, decelerate and steer. Having information about this interaction in real-time can be very valuable for the on-board advanced active safety systems to mitigate the risks ahead of time and keep the vehicle stable. The crucial information which can be obtained from the
tire includes but are not limited to
tire-road friction,
tire forces (longitudinal, lateral), normal load, road surface characteristics and
tire pressure. This information can be acquired through indirect vehicle dynamics based estimation algorithms or through direct measurements using sensors inside the
tire. However, the indirect estimations fail to give an accurate measure of the vehicle state in certain conditions (e.g. side winds, road banking, surface change) and require ABS or VSC activation before the estimation begins. Therefore, to improve the performance of these active stability systems, direct measurement based approaches must be explored.
This research expands the applications of Intelligent
tire and focuses on using the sensor based measurement approach to develop estimation algorithms relating to
tire force measurement. A tri-axial accelerometer is attached to the inner liner of the
tire (Intelligent
Tire) and two of such tires are placed on an instrumented (MSW, VBox, IMU, Encoders) VW Jetta. Different controlled tests are carried out on the instrumented vehicle and the Intelligent
tire signal is analyzed to extract features related to the
tire forces and pressure. Due to unavailability of direct force measurements at the wheel, a VW Jetta simulation model is developed in CarSim and the extracted features are validated with a good correlation.

▼ With the development of the computational technology, vehicle dynamics simulation has become a powerful tool for vehicle design in automotive industry nowadays. Since the
tire plays a crucial role in vehicle handling, ride comfort, and durability, an accurate and efficient
tire model becomes the prerequisite for the reliability and effectiveness of various vehicle dynamic simulations.
In this dissertation, first an in-plane flexible ring
tire model which is mainly used for straight line ride comfort and durability analysis is proposed. The model consists of a rigid rim, a certain number of discretized lumped mass belt points and massless tread blocks attached on the belt. Various virtual in-plane cleat tests according to the commercial ADAMS® FTire are conducted for parameter identification and validation of this in-plane
tire model.
The in-plane flexible ring
tire model is further extended to a 3D out-of-plane
tire model with a broader range of applications. The parameters in the 3D out-of-plane
tire model are divided into in-plane
tire parameters and out-of-plane
tire parameters. Within the 3D
tire model the values of the in-plane
tire parameters are borrowed directly from the in-plane
tire model, and the out-of-plane
tire parameters are identified based on certain out-of-plane cleat tests. Various ADAMS® FTire driving/braking, cornering and cleat tests are conducted to validate the proposed 3D out-of-plane
tire model.
Besides, several important topics regarding to the flexible ring
tire model, including the
tire model efficiency,
tire parameter sensitivity, robustness of the parameter identification procedure, and the relation between the
tire parameters and
tire model discretization, are also investigated in this dissertation.

▼ This thesis is a continuation of the model development work by Amir Gasmi in 2011 and Tim Lewis in 2012. The model was originally developed by Gasmi in 2011 to represent non-pneumatic tires. It centers on a thin, circular beam in contact with a rigid surface, which represents the belt package of the non-pneumatic
tire. The beam is connected to a wheel with spokes. Gasmi developed a method to approximate these discrete spokes with a continuous load on the belt package. The results of this non-pneumatic
tire model agreed very well with non-linear finite element analysis of a non-pneumatic
tire. This model was adapted for pneumatic tires by Lewis in 2012. Lewis introduced a superposition scheme to reduce errors introduced by tension in the belts at the edge of contact. The sidewalls were approximated as circular in order to calculate sidewall stiffness. The results presented by Lewis for force versus deflection and counterdeflection agreed reasonably well with experimental measurements, but used stiffness values that were more from curve fitting than from a mechanics analysis of the
tire geometry and material properties. The model presented in this thesis was developed directly from Lewis' model. This model includes more representative sidewall modeling based on membrane theory, and more representative belt properties based on composites theory. Unlike in the results presented by Lewis, the sidewall stiffness values (denoted as Kr and Kθ) are not considered to be inputs to the model; rather, the
tire's geometrical design parameters (such as outer radius and sidewall width) are the inputs, and the stiffness values are calculated as part of the model. This allows for a more direct connection to
tire design. The model has been improved to take into account a stiffness property called pre-tensioning, which allows the sidewalls (or in the case of a non-pneumatic
tire, spokes) to maintain their stiffness in tension at small levels of negative deflection. This thesis will present a thorough investigation of the solutions with and without superposition, at a range of conditions. Also presented is an investigation of adjustments to input parameters to account for assumptions made in the model, as well as a sensitivity analysis.

▼ As vehicle dynamics research delves deeper into better insights in performance, modeling, and vehicle controls, one area remains of utmost importance: tire and road friction forces. The vehicle’s interaction with the road remains the dominant mean of vehicle control. Ultimately, the tire-road interaction will determine the majority of the vehicle’s capabilities and as the understanding of the interface improves, so too can the performance.
With more computationally intensive systems being instrumented into modern vehicle systems, one is able to observe a great deal of important vehicle states directly for the remaining vehicle information; excellent estimation techniques are providing the rest of the insights. This study looks at the possible improvements that can be observed by implementing an adaptive dynamic tire model that is physical and flexible enough to permit time varying tire performance. The tire model selected is the Average Lumped LuGre Friction Tire Model, which was originally developed from physical properties of friction and tire systems.
The material presented here examines the possibility of an adaptive tire model, which can be implemented on a real-time vehicle platform. The adaptive tire model is just one section of an entire control strategy that is being developed by General Motors in partnership with the University of Waterloo. The approach allows for estimated and measured vehicle information to provide input excitation for the tire model when driven with real-world conditions that enabling tire estimations. The tire model would then provide the controller information indicating the expected tire capacity and compares it with the instantaneous loading. The adaptive tire model has been tested with flat road experimental cases and the results provided reasonable estimates. The experimentation was performed with a fully instrumented research vehicle that used in-wheel force transducers, and later repeated with a completely different non-instrumented fully electric vehicle.
The concepts and investigation presented here has initiated the ground work for a real-time implementation of a full adaptive tire model. Further work is still required to evaluate the influence of a range of operating conditions, tire pressure, and of different tire types. However, the findings indicate that this approach can produce reasonable results for the specified conditions examined.

▼ Expansive soils and stockpiled scrap tires present unique constructability and environmental challenges to the Front Range of Northern Colorado, respectively. Swell, stiffness and strength parameters of expansive soil-rubber (ESR) mixtures were systematically evaluated in the laboratory under one-dimensional and axisymmetric boundary conditions. ESR mixtures tested contained highly plastic, swelling clay from the Pierre shale formation and scrap
tire rubber (STR) with nominal maximum particle sizes equal to approximately 6.7 or 19.0 mm. Compaction parameters were determined using standard Proctor compaction procedures (ASTM D698). Mixtures were compacted to relative compaction levels equal to 90, 95 or 100% and water contents varying by ± 2% around the optimum water content. Rubber contents used were equal to 0, 10 or 20%. Specimen and rubber particle sizes were also studied to assess differences in mechanical behavior of 6.7- and 19.0-mm ESR mixtures tested in one-dimensional compression employing three specimen sizes (small-scale, large-scale and field-scale) and in undrained axisymmetric compression employing two specimen sizes (small-scale and large-scale). Swell-compression results indicated the swell percent and swell pressure of specimens subjected to one-dimensional compression with lateral confinement were most impacted by initial water content, followed by relative compaction and rubber content. Compressibility parameters, including the constrained and elastic moduli, are most impacted by rubber content, followed by relative compaction and initial water content. Small-scale one-dimensional specimens demonstrated a minimal increase in swelling and insignificant variations in compressibility in comparison to large-scale one-dimensional and field-scale specimens. ESR specimens subjected to axisymmetric boundary conditions exhibited volumetric swell during flushing and back pressure saturation and swelling magnitudes were similar for nominal rubber particle sizes equal to 6.7 and 19.0 mm. Normal compression line parameters, λcs and κcs, were equal to 0.10 and 0.05, and 0.11 and 0.04 for large-scale 6.7- and 19.0-mm ESR specimens, respectively. Critical state parameters, Mcs, Γcs, and λcs, were equal to 1.20, 2.23 and 0.14, and 1.04, 2.15 and 0.13 for large-scale 6.7- and 19.0-mm ESR specimens, respectively. Scalability results indicate similar swell, stiffness and strength of ESR mixtures compacted to various specimen sizes with the inclusion of either 6.7- or 19.0-mm scrap
tire rubber particles. Results indicate reasonable predictions of the mechanical behavior of ESR mixtures including
tire chips can be made using conventional laboratory specimen sizes and testing techniques employing similar host expansive soils and rubber contents used to create ESR mixtures including granulated rubber.

▼ The interaction between a
tire and road surface is of critical importance as the motion of a car in both transient and steady-state maneuvers is predicated on the friction forces generated at the
tire-road interface. A general method for predicting friction coefficients for an arbitrary asphalt pavement surface would be an invaluable engineering tool for designing many vehicle safety and performance features,
tire design, and improving asphalt-aggregate mixtures used for pavement surfaces by manipulating texture. General, physics-based methods for predicting friction are incredibly difficult, if not impossible to realize—However, for the specific case of rubber sliding across a rough surface, the primary physical mechanisms responsible for friction, notably rubber hysteresis, can be modeled.
The objective of the subsequent research is to investigate one such physics model, referred to as Persson Theory, and implement the constitutive equations into a MatLab® code to be solved numerically. The model uses high-resolution surface measurements, along with some of the physical properties of rubber as inputs and outputs the kinetic friction coefficient. The Persson model was successfully implemented into MatLab® and high resolution measurements (from optical microscopy and imaging software) were obtained for a variety of surfaces. Friction coefficients were calculated for each surface and compared with measured friction values obtained from British Pendulum testing. The accuracy and feasibility of the Persson model are discussed and results are compared with a simpler, semi-empirical indenter model. A brief discussion of the merits and drawbacks of the Persson model are offered along with recommendations for future research based on the information acquired from the present study.

▼ The
tire is one of the most important components of the vehicle. It has many functions, such as supporting the load of the vehicle, transmitting the forces which drive, brake and guide the vehicle, and acting as the secondary suspension to absorb the effect of road irregularities before transmitting the forces to the vehicle suspension. A
tire is a complex reinforced rubber composite air container. The structure of the
tire is very complex. It consists of several layers of synthetic polymer, many flexible filaments of high modulus cord, and glass fiber, which are bonded to a matrix of low modulus polymeric material. As the
tire is the only component of the vehicle which makes contact with the road surface, almost all forces and moments acting on the vehicle must be transferred by the
tire. To predict the dynamics of the vehicle, we need to know these forces and moments generated at the
tire contact patch. Therefore,
tire models that accurately describe this dynamic behavior are needed for vehicle dynamic simulation. Many researchers developed
tire models for vehicle dynamic simulations; however, most of the development in
tire modeling has been limited to deterministic steady-state on-road
tire models.
The research conducted in this study is concerned with the development of semi-empirical transient
tire models for on-road and off-road vehicle simulations. The semi-empirical transient
tire model is developed based on existed
tire models, analytical
tire structure mechanics analysis, and experimental data collected by various researchers. The
tire models were developed for vehicle traction, handling and ride analysis. The theoretical mechanics analysis of the
tire model focused on the determination of
tire and terrain deformation. Then, the results are used together with empirical data to calculate the force response and the moment response. Moreover, the influence of parametric uncertainties in
tire parameters on the
tire-terrain interaction is investigated. The parametric uncertainties are quantified and propagated through the
tire models using a polynomial chaos theory with a collocation approach. To illustrate the capabilities of the
tire models developed, both deterministic and stochastic
tire models are simulated for various scenarios and maneuvers. Numerically simulated results are analyzed from the perspective of vehicle dynamics. Such an analysis can be used in
tire and vehicle development and design.

▼ The pneumatic
tire has been studied extensively since its invention in 1888. With the advent of high-powered computers and the use of the finite element method, the understanding of the
tire's complex non-linear behavior has grown tremendously. However, one weakness of finite element models is that parameter studies are difficult and time consuming to perform. In contrast, an analytical model can quickly and easily perform extensive parameter studies. To the knowledge of the author, all existing analytical models of the
tire make assumptions concerning the
tire's behavior and construction that while useful for obtaining some of the first-order characteristics, are limited since they cannot relate
tire behavior such as force-deflection to individual
tire stiffnesses. As such, an adequate two-dimensional model of a pneumatic
tire, including a finite element model, does not exist. Therefore, an analytical, two-dimensional model for a pneumatic
tire in static contact with a rigid surface is developed and presented. The case of a non-pneumatic
tire can be obtained as a special case. The quasi-static investigation concentrates on finding the relationships between the
tire's size and stiffness and its deformation under loading. A total of seven stiffness parameters are accounted for. The belt of the
tire is modeled using curved beam theory, developed by Gasmi, et al. (2011), which accounts for bending (EI), shearing (GA), and extensional (EA) deformations. The sidewall of the
tire is modeled as a bi-linear spring (K
rT, K
rC) with pre-tensioning (F
P*) in the radial direction and a linear torsional spring (K
θ) in the circumferential direction. Application of virtual work leads to a set of 6th order differential equations for the displacements in the belt that must be solved in three distinct regions. The first region is the region where the radial deformation is greater than the radial deformation of the inflated and unloaded
tire. The second region is the region where the radial deformation of the sidewall is less than the inflated position but not in contact with the ground, and the third region is defined to be the region in contact with the ground. The length of the contact patch is represented by the angle enclosed by the edges of contact, and analytical expressions of stress resultants and displacements at the centroids of cross-sections are expressed in terms of this angle. In order to improve the accuracy of the model for large deformations, a special inflation pressure was calculated that allowed the most accurate solution to the linear model to be obtained by minimizing the circumferential force in the region of the largest rotation of the curved beam. This solution was then modified to account for the true inflation pressure. This two-step solution procedure was validated with a geometrically nonlinear finite element model of a non-pneumatic
tire. Force vs. deflection and force vs. counter deflection results were compared to experimental data for a…

▼ Recently, the development of non-pneumatic tires (NPT) such as the Michelin Tweel is receiving increased attention due to potential advantages over pneumatic tires such as low mass, no run flat, good contact pressure distribution, and low rolling resistance (RR). This study focuses on the design of a NPT based on properties of vertical stiffness, contact pressure, and rolling energy loss. Using a finite element (FE) model, a parametric study is conducted to study the effect on vertical stiffness, contact pressure, and rolling resistance (RR) response considering three design variables: (1) thickness of the spokes, (2) the shear band thickness, and (3) shear modulus of the shear band and spokes of the NPT. The first two design variables are geometric parameters of the NPT while the third design variable is a material parameter. Using the three design variables, a design of experiments (DOE) is performed to study the effect on RR, contact pressure, and vertical displacement. Results from the DOE are used to create response surface models (RSM) for the objective function (minimal RR) and constraints on vertical deflection and contact pressure. The analytical RSM function is optimized for minimizing the rolling loss subjected to the given constraints. In addition, a design sensitivity study is performed to evaluate the influence of the design variables on the output response. Results indicate that all the design variables have significant effect on RR, with the shear band thickness and shear modulus having the greater effect.

engineering - Motor vehicles
motornim vozilima“ razmatrane su mogućnosti
unapređenja održavanja pneumatika na motornim vozilima. Opšti
naučni cilj disertacije bio je razvoj metode modeliranja uticaja
pritiska i opšteg stanja pneumatika na bezbednost saobraćaja,
troškove pneumatika, troškove goriva i druge troškove eksploatacije
vozila. Značajan cilj i doprinos rada je promocija proaktivnog
pristupa održavanju pneumatika za komercijalna vozila a, s tim u
vezi, i primena sistema za nadzor pritiska vazduha u pneumaticima
(TPMS) kao konceptualnog rešenja koje je blisko konceptualnim
rešenjima za ostale sisteme na vozilu, a koji su već poznati i u
upotrebi. U okviru disertacije obavljena su istraživanja u SP
„Lasta“ A.D., našem najvećem saobraćajnom preduzeću, sa ciljem da
se utvrdi da li bi primena TPMS uređaja na komercijalnim vozilima,
osim povećane bezbednosti, imala uticaja na povećanje ekonomičnosti
eksploatacije. Istraživanja su obuhvatila utvrđivanje stanja
pneumatika u SP „Lasta“ A.D., kontrolu i analizu pritisaka vazduha
u pneumaticima u SP „Lasta“ A.D. i putna ispitivanja pneumatika u
gradskom, prigradskom i međumesnom saobraćaju. Na osnovu analize
rezultata istraživanja može se doneti zaključak da je sa gledišta
bezbednosti saobraćaja, pogotovu kada se radi o prevozu putnika,
održavanje propisanog pritiska vazduha od primarnog značaja. S
obzirom da vozači tradicionalno izbegavaju svoje obaveze prema
održavanju pneumatika proizvođači pneumatika i vozila izlaz iz ove
situacije su potražili u novim tehničkim rešenjima. U doktorskoj
disertaciji „Razvoj metodologije za proaktivno održavanje
pneumatika na motornim vozilima“ je predstavljen model uticaja
pneumatika na troškove eksploatacije vozila. Pošlo se od
pretpostavke da odstupanje od propisanog pritiska vazduha u
pneumatiku utiče na troškove eksploatacije vozila na četiri načina:
povećava intenzitet habanja i smanjuje pređenu kilometražu između
dva protektiranja, skraćuje vek spoljne gume, povećava potrošnju
goriva (zbog povećanja otpora kotrljanja) i povećani broj
iznenadnih otkaza usled separacije protektora ili eksplozije (usled
preteranag zagrevanja pneumatika) . Za kvantifikaciju posledica
neodgovarajućeg pritiska postavljene su odgovarajuće „krive
zavisnosti“, odnosno krive korelacije između odstupanja pritiska od
propisanog i promena u veku pneumatika, veku protektora i potrošnje
goriva. „Krive zavisnosti“ su integrisane u zajednički model koji
je iskorišćen za ocenu predloženih sistema za unapređenje

▼ Discarded tires have been an environmental concern in
different parts of the world. One mass application to avoid such
environmental concern is to use them as embankment fill material in
civil engineering projects. In such applications, discarded tires
are usually used in a shred form referred as Tire Derived Aggregate
(TDA). Tire derived aggregate has desirable properties for most
civil engineering applications; it is lightweight, free-draining,
and has good thermal resistivity. In the past, it has been
successfully used as fill material in various engineering projects.
Tire derived aggregate has also been used as fill material by
mixing with soil. Despite the superior geotechnical characteristics
and successful application, predicting settlement in the field
based on laboratory tests has been a problem. Moreover, only TDA
produced from Passenger and Light Truck Tire referred as PLTT has
been used in the past. However, in regions with heavy industrial
and mining activities, such as the Province of Alberta, Canada,
Off-The-Road (OTR) tires have become a significant source for TDA
production. The major challenge for the use of TDA from OTR is the
lack of laboratory data or field experience. In this study, the
application and engineering properties of TDA produced from PLTT
and OTR, and PLTT-mixed with soil as fill material for highway
embankment application has been investigated using large-scale
laboratory or full-scale field experiments. The compression
behavior of TDA, taking particle size and source of tire as
experimental variable, has been investigated using large-scale
laboratory testing apparatus. Based on results from the large-scale
laboratory compression test, nonlinear elastic material model has
been developed for TDA. The developed material model has been used
in numerical analysis to predict settlement measured in the field
for the construction of a test embankment. The result from
numerical analysis agrees reasonable well with the measured
settlement in the field. Various data were also collected from the
field experiment where TDA or TDA-mixed with soil was used as fill
material. The ease of construction for using TDA or TDA-mixed with
soil as fill material, field mixing of TDA and soil, immediate and
time-dependent settlement, potential for internal heating and
overall performance have been evaluated from the data collected.
Analyses of the field data support the use of PLTT, OTR, and
TDA-mixed with soil as a fill material for highway embankment. The
construction can be completed with conventional construction
equipment and the performance is quite satisfactory. Moreover, such
construction is beneficial to the environment by recycling a waste
material.

▼ With an ever-growing world population, the agricultural industry must continue to increase its efficiency whenever possible. Large amounts of energy are lost between the soil-tire interface, which can lead to an increase in slip and a decrease in energy efficiency. The Brixius equations are a set of equations designed to predict tractive performance. These equations were developed based on data acquired in the 1970's and 1980's, may not accurately represent today's tire and tractor technology nor accurately scale across a range of inflation pressures.
With a tractor fitted with instrumentation; the ability of the Brixius equations to predict the net tractive performance was analyzed across changes in tire pressure, soil condition, and ballasting. The actual drawbar pull produced by the tractor was measured by a load cell, while the deflection of the tire was found by ultrasonic distance sensors mounted inside the rim of the driving tires. A separate tractor was used to load the test tractor, which followed the methods of Zoz and Grisso (2003). After analyzing the data collected, it was determined that the Brixius equations were not able to fully account for changes in tire pressure when predicting net tractive force. Similarly, changes in soil conditions were also not completely captured by the Brixius equation. When using low tire pressure, a higher drawbar pull was produced by the tractor than anticipated with the model.

▼ It has been shown that
tire deformation can play an important role in the stability and handling of a bicycle. It is expected that an accurate understanding of
tire behavior is necessary for correct understanding of rider behavior and that correct understanding of rider behavior is necessary for optimizing bicycle design. That certainly has been the case for motorcycles.
Several instances of published bicycle
tire stiffness data exist, but they seldom agree with each other, do not all measure the same properties, and often are missing key pieces of test configuration data, such as
tire size, rim width, inflation pressure, or vertical load.
In this project, three different test devices specific to bicycle tires were developed. Measured bicycle
tire stiffnesses are presented for 14 different tires ranging from 22 to 50 mm wide, at inflation pressures from 2 to 11 bar (29 to 160 psi), under vertical loads from 304 to 731 Newtons (68 to 164 lb); for a total of about 120 different parameter combinations.
Normalized cornering stiffness was found to vary from below 0.15 to over 0.35, which is ±40% from the average, and normalized camber stiffness varies from below 0.0075 to over 0.015, which is ±33% from the average. Based on numerical simulations, this is more than sufficient to influence bicycle stability and handling.
Tires approach the camber stiffness necessary, without slip, for the net ground reaction force to be in the plane of the wheel, obeying the so-called tangent rule, but most tires with most inflation pressures and under most loads presented here fall below that.
A numerical model, based on an analysis developed by Rotta for slender toroidal
tire cross sections in contact with the ground, was also developed to provide insight into how the tires generated the forces they do and attempt to predict them from simpler measurements.
Although actual values generated by the model do not exactly match measured values, the trends in contact patch size and lateral stiffness values generated do correspond well with measured data as parameters vary, such as inflation pressure, vertical load, and rim width.

Najveći broj zahteva 80-ih godina prošlog veka
odnosio se na čistoću vode i vazduha, koji su zajedno sa ostalim
ekološkim imperativima, postaje jedna od najvažnijih tema danas.
Ovo uključuje smanjenje korišćenja sirovina i njihovu štednju,
odnosno redukciju otpadnih materijala. Cilj je usmeren na to da se
ono što se proizvede i određeno vreme koristi, na kraju svog
životnog veka, i uz eventualne intervencije ponovo vrati u upotrebu
i to sa osobinama koje se ne razlikuju od karakteristika
originalnih, izvornih sirovina ili proizvoda. Iz tog razloga,
prisutna je tendencija i direktiva uvođenja reciklaže u proces
industrijske proizvodnje. Neposredno sa tim tendencijama, mesto i
uloga logistike u industrijskoj proizvodnji, kao i značaj
upravljačke podrške, odnosno menadžmenta, postaju značajniji i
veći. Pri tome, u savremenom poslovanju, industrijska proizvodnja,
kao ni bilo koja druga privredna delatnost, ne bi se ni mogla
zamisliti bez odgovarajuće logističke podrške i savremenog
menadžmenta. U gotovo svim delatnostima ljudi i potrošnji se na
različitim mestima nađu proizvodi koji su van funkcije. To su
proizvodi koji su grupisani u klasu onih koji su završili svoj
radni vek, takozvani (End Of Life) EOL proizvodi, pri čemu značajan
deo njih nije u potpunosti izgubio prvobitne osobine, odnosno neki
nivo upotrebljivosti. Zbog toga isti nisu predodređeni da u momentu
kada završe životni vek budu upućeni na deponiju, odnosno dobiju
tretman otpada. Imajući u vidu prethodne tendencije, u ljudskim
delatnostima...

▼ This research focuses on the design and development of multifunctional components intended to provide three basic functions: (i) power generation, (ii) power storage, and (iii) structural support. They are made of composite multi-material systems that include
smart materials. By combining various functions into the same component significant performance, weight, space, assembly and packing benefits can be achieved. A major portion of this thesis is devoted to the use of piezoelectric layers in order to generate few
milliwatts of power and enhance the utility of electrical mobility products and subsystems while facilitating new venues for implementing such devices. Shoes and pneumatic tires were used to harvest energy from their innate motion and various useful applications of harvested energy have been demonstrated in the form of sensors and power sources for
larger devices.
Shoe-based power generation can be used for charging Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) tags, GPS sensors, portable electronics, etc.
Tire-based power generation can be used for powering battery-less wireless
Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS),
wireless Vehicle Speed Sensors (VSS),
tire health monitoring sensors, etc. Fully functional proof-of-product prototypes of a variety of multifunctional components were developed and subjected to experimentation and testing using custom designed and built
lab-scale made experimental machinery. Contrary to the paradigm, the possibility of using piezoelectric materials in automotive tires to produce few watts of power (>2 watts) has been successfully demonstrated with applications ranging from powering more demanding sensors to onboard batteries. An Electronic Vehicle Control System (EVCS)
with electronic differential and cruise control capabilities has also been designed, developed and tested on the Extended Range Plug-In Hybrid vehicle previously developed at UOIT.

▼ The research focuses on developing a methodology for modeling a pneumatic bias-ply
tire with the finite element method for vehicle dynamics simulation. The
tire as a load-carrying member in a vehicle system deserves emphasized formulation especially for the contact patch because its representation of mechanics in the contact patch directly impacts the handling and ride performance of a vehicle. On the other hand, the load transfer from the contact patch to the wheel hub is necessary for determining the inputs to a chassis. A finite element (FE)
tire model has strong capability to handle these two issues. However, the high cost of computing resources restrains its application mainly in the
tire design domain. This research aims to investigate how to balance the complexity of a simplified FE
tire model without diminishing its capability towards representing the load transmission for vehicle dynamics simulation.
The traditional FE
tire model developed by
tire suppliers usually consists of an extremely large number of elements, which makes it impossible to be included in a full-vehicle dynamics simulation. The material properties required by
tire companies' FE
tire models are protected. The car companies have an increasing need for a physical-based
tire model to understand more about the interaction between the
tire and chassis. A gap between the two sides occurs because the model used for
tire design cannot directly help car companies for their purpose. All of these reasons motivate the current research to provide a solution to narrow this gap.
Other modern
tire models for vehicle dynamics, e.g. FTire or TAME, require a series of full-
tire tests to calibrate their model parameters, which is expensive and time-consuming. One great merit of the proposed simplified FE
tire model is that determining model inputs only requires small-scale specimen tests instead of full-
tire tests. Because much of the usability of a model hinges on whether its input parameters are easily determined, this feature makes the current model low cost and easily accessible in the absence of proprietary information from the
tire supplier.
A Hoosier LC0 racing
tire was selected as a proof of modeling concept. All modeling work was carried out using the general purpose commercial software Abaqus. The developed model was validated through static load-deflection test data together with Digital Image Correlation (DIC) data. The finite element models were further evaluated by predicting the traction/braking and cornering
tire forces against
Tire Test Consortium (TTC) data from the Calspan flat-track test facility. The emphasis was put on modeling techniques for the transient response due to the lack of available test data. The in-plane and out-of-plane performance of the Hoosier
tire on the full-
tire test data is used for model validation, not for "calibrating" the model. The agreement between model prediction and physical tests demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

▼ A differential steered, 13.6 kg robot was developed as an intelligent
tire testing system and was used to investigate the potential of using piezoelectric film sensors in small tube-type pneumatic tires to characterize
tire-ground interaction. One focus of recent research in the
tire industry has been on instrumenting tires with sensors to monitor the
tire, vehicle, or external environment. On small robots,
tire sensors that measure the forces and deflections in the contact patch could be used to improve energy efficiency and/or mobility during a mission. The robot was assembled from a SuperDroid Robots kit and instrumented with low-cost piezoelectric film sensors from Measurement Specialties between the inner tube and the
tire. An unlaminated and a laminated sensor were placed circumferentially along the tread and an unlaminated sensor was placed along the sidewall. A slip ring transferred the signals from the
tire to the robot. There, the signal conditioning circuit extended the time constant of the sensors and filtered electromagnetic interference. The robot was tested with a controlled power sequence carried out on polished cement, ice, and sand at three power levels, two payload levels, and with two
tire sizes. The results suggest that the sensors were capable of detecting normal pressure, deflection, and/or longitudinal strain. Added payload increased the amplitude of the signals for all sensors. On the smaller tires, sensors generally recorded a smaller, wider signal on sand compared to cement, indicating the potential to detect contact patch pressure and length. The signals recorded by the unlaminated sensor along the tread of the smaller
tire were lower on ice compared to cement, indicating possible sensitivity to tractive force. Results were less consistent for the larger tires, possibly due to the large tread pattern.

▼ Tires play an extremely important role in the operation of a vehicle as they transmit forces between the ground and the vehicle. Consistent efforts have been made over the years towards modeling and simulation of tires and more recently, there has been an increasing need to understand the transient response of tires to various high-frequency events such as anti-lock braking and short-wavelength disturbances from the road. Major thrust has been provided by the
tire industry to develop simulation models that accurately predict the dynamic response of tires without the use of computationally intensive tools such as FEA. The objective of this research is to explain the development, implementation and validation of a simulation tool based on a dynamic
tire model that would assist in the analysis of the effect of
tire belt vibrations on the braking performance of a vehicle. A rigid ring
tire model, tandem elliptical cam enveloping model and a rule-based ABS model have been developed for this purpose. These were combined together in a quarter vehicle model and implemented in Matlab-Simulink. These models were developed for adaptation with CarSim to provide a simulation tool that can be utilized in both
tire and vehicle design processes. In addition to model implementation, a parameterization procedure was developed to estimate the parameters of the rigid ring
tire and enveloping model based on experimental data for a given
tire. Validation studies have also been performed to ensure the accuracy and validity of the
tire model. Following this, the braking performance of ABS under different road surfaces were evaluated. Based on the simulation results, final conclusions were drawn with regards to the analysis and detailed recommendations for future work directed towards the improvement of the tool were provided.

▼ The vertical force generated from terrain-
tire interaction has long been of interest for vehicle dynamic simulations and chassis development. As the terrain serves as the main excitation to the suspension system through pneumatic
tire, proper terrain and
tire models are required to produce reliable vehicle response. Due to the high complexity of the
tire structure and the immense size of a high fidelity terrain profile, it is not efficient to calculate the terrain-
tire interaction at every location. The use of a simpler
tire model (e.g. point follower
tire model) and a pre-filtered terrain profile as equivalent input will considerably reduce the simulation time. The desired produced responses would be nearly identical to the ones using a complex
tire model and unfiltered terrain, with a significant computational efficiency improvement.
In this work, a terrain pre-filtering technique is developed to improve simulation efficiency while still providing reliable load prediction. The work is divided into three parts. First a stochastic gridding method is developed to include the measurement uncertainties in the gridded terrain profile used as input to the vehicle simulation. The obtained uniformly spaced terrain is considered probabilistic, with a series of gridding nodes with heights represented by random variables. Next, a constraint mode
tire model is proposed to emulate the
tire radial displacement and the corresponding force given the terrain excitation. Finally, based on the constraint mode
tire model, the pre-filtering technique is developed. At each location along the
tire's path, the
tire center height is adjusted until the spindle load reaches a pre-designated constant load. The resultant
tire center trajectory is the pre-filtered terrain profile and serves as an equivalent input to the simple
tire model. The vehicle response produced by using the pre-filtered terrain profile and the simple
tire model is analyzed for accuracy assessment. The computational efficiency improvement is also examined. The effectiveness of the pre-filtering technique is validated on probabilistic terrain by using different realizations of terrain profiles. It is shown through multiple profiles that the computational efficiency can be improved by three orders of magnitude with no statistically significant change in resulting loading.

▼ Disposal costs of scrap tires have prompted researchers to investigate beneficial reuses for waste tires. One important application is use of
tire chips as
tire derived aggregate (TDA), which can be a substitute for rock aggregate in engineering applications. Properties of TDA were investigated through a series of experiments using type A TDA (maximum 8-in. length), type B TDA (maximum 12-in. length) and a 50/50 mixture of type A and type B TDA. Three areas of testing were completed on TDA, which included physical properties, substitution of rock aggregate with TDA in leach fields, and exothermic properties of TDA. A small and large magnitude dynamic vertical compression test was completed using tri-axial cylinders to measure the compressibility of TDA. Density, weight specific gravity, void ratio, and porosity were also calculated during experimental tests. During compression testing, TDA initially exhibited plastic compression under load, but after TDA was subjected to compressive loads it behaved like an elastic material. A constant-head permeameter, under loads up to 95 pounds per square inch, was used to measure the hydraulic conductivity of TDA. The hydraulic conductivity varied for all tests by TDA type (type A or B or a 50/50 mixture), applied pressure, and hydraulic gradient. Implications of substituting TDA for rock in leach fields were also investigated. Results indicated that TDA was a viable substitute for rock aggregate in septic systems with regards to wastewater treatment and durability. A leach field that contained TDA showed increased microbiological growth within the media and statistically significant effluent quality for eight constituents (of 84 tested constituents) when compared to a leach field containing rock aggregate that was under equivalent wastewater loading conditions. A thermal analysis of temperature changesover time was also completed using clean (did not have flammable liquids on the material) type A TDA in (1) a septic leach field, (2) a 20 ft. tall column of packed TDA, and (3) an underground earthen pit, where TDA was placed in the ground within 12 hours of manufacturing. In all thermal experiments, clean type A TDA did not show any hazardous reactions that would cause fire concerns.

▼ Tires play a critical role in influencing vehicle
behavior. Determining vehicle handling, implementation of active
safety systems such as anti-lock braking systems and electronic
stability control systems rely on robust understanding of
tire
behavior.
Tire behavior changes with operating conditions such as
normal load, camber angle, slip angle and temperature. These
operating conditions were identified with on track testing using
wheel force transducers, slip angle sensors and an array of data
acquisition systems. Data from 20 days of driving on public roads
with data acquisition provided guidance to design the on track
testing. Data from on track testing was used to design high slip
angle and low slip angle
tire testing on the FlatTrac III
tire test
rig at Smithers Rapra in Akron, Ohio. Correlation between wheel
force transducer and FlatTrac III was presented. In addition,
correlation between the test track surface and FlatTrac III belt
surface was also presented by using the same physical tires between
track testing and FlatTrac III testing. The on track data can be
used to reduce testing time and cost by about 40% by utilizing an
asymmetric
tire test matrix. Further, Magic Formula 6.1
tire models
are fit to the data from FlatTrac III and scaling factors are
developed which can further reduce testing time and cost by 50%.
The correlation between lateral force predicted by these scaled
models to measured lateral force on the FlatTrac III for a
combination of normal load, slip angle and camber is
provided.

▼ Geometric design of highways is an important aspect of highway engineering, and in particular, horizontal curves on highways have higher accident rates compared to straight roads. Quantitative guidelines for horizontal curve design exist only for flat roads, but not downgrades. This study uses a friction demand versus friction supply approach to check whether the current horizontal curve design policies are acceptable for downgrades. Skid measurements combined with a physics-based
tire model are used to obtain the friction supply at various design speeds. This thesis develops analytical as well as low-order simulation-based models for a vehicle traveling on downgrade in order to find the friction demand of the vehicle. Results show that per-axle friction demand can be significantly higher compared to the overall friction demand which is basis of current design guidelines. The margins of safety are shown to significantly decrease with design speed, and in the case of even moderate braking, go to a very low value at high speeds.

The Master’s thesis presents findings of the
study of tire rolling resistance under field conditions with
different types of support surfaces (grassland, stubble, dry
gravel-road), different vertical loads of tires (from 1.4 kN to 5.9
kN) and different air pressures in a tire (from 0.5 bar to 2.0
bar). Object of the thesis – tire rolling resistance coefficient f,
change of its values with different parameters of a tire, load and
support surface. The study was carried out using the tire BELCHINA
7.50L – 16 ФБел – 253. Methods of the thesis: in order to carry out
the tire study, mobile stand was designed and manufactured and
attached to self-propelled chassis T – 16M. Results of the thesis.
Air pressure in the tire and the value of vertical load influenced
the change of rolling resistance coefficient with different support
surfaces (grassland, stubble, dry gravel-road). At the tire
pressure being decreased, the rolling resistance force was directly
proportional to the force of vertical load and is inversely
proportional to pressure in the tire. The lowest value of rolling
resistance force Fp on grassland was obtained at the pressure of
1,0 bar and vertical load of 1,4 kN on the tire (Fp = 14,375 kN).
On stubble – at the pressure of 0,5 bar in the tire and vertical
load of 1,4 kN (Fp = 22,283 kN). When the test was performed on dry
gravel-road, the minimal value of rolling resistance force Fp was
when the tire was affected by vertical load of 1,4 kN and air

▼ Significant time and cost savings can be realized through the use of virtual simulation of testing procedures across diverse areas of research and development. Fully detailed virtual truck models using the simplified off-road rigid-ring model parameters may further increase these economical savings within the automotive industry. The determination of the off-road rigid-ring parameters is meant to facilitate the simulation of full vehicle models developed by Volvo Group Trucks Technology. This works features new FEA (Finite Element Analysis)
tire and SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) soil interaction modeling techniques. The in-plane and out-of-plane off-road rigid-ring parameters are predicted for an RHD (Regional Haul Drive) truck
tire at varying operating conditions. The
tire model is validated through static and dynamic virtual tests that are compared to previously published literature.
Both the in-plane and out-of-plane off-road rigid-ring RHD parameters were successfully predicted. The majority of the in-plane parameters are strongly influenced by the inflation pressure of the
tire because the in-plane parameters are derived with respect to the mode of vibration of the
tire. The total equivalent vertical stiffness on a dry sand is not as heavily influenced by the inflation pressure compared to predictions on a hard surface. For perspective, at 110 psi, the dry sand total vertical stiffness is nearly nine times smaller than that determined on the hard surface, while the lateral stiffness on soft soil (Dry Sand) is at a minimal of three times higher than that of the corresponding values tested on a hard surface. The cornering stiffness is primarily load dependant because the inflation pressure is only noticeably influential at high vertical loads. More importantly, the soil builds in front of the
tire, creating what is called a bulldozing effect, during high slip angles. The additional lateral force of the soil exerted onto the
tire during cornering maneuvers may contribute to higher than expected results and may be confirmed through future investigation of the cohesion of the soil model.

▼ Tires are considered one of the most important components of ground vehicles as they are the only link between the chassis and ground. They support the vehicle weight and cushion road surface irregularities to provide a comfortable ride. Tires are designed in a way that provide necessary tractive, braking, and cornering forces to form a safe and stable ride for ground vehicles. Recent advancements in computerized and virtual modeling provided an efficient methodology for accurate prediction of
tire characteristics. In this thesis Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is employed as a method to accurately construct a new virtual wide-base
tire model, validate it, and then study rolling resistance of the
tire on a hard surface. This thesis includes
tire-soil interaction and effects of soil on tires rolling resistance. To accurately study rolling resistance on soft soil, various soil models are created by using FEA and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), as a representative of dry sand soil. Soil models are calibrated by using shear-displacement and pressure-sinkage simulation tests. The simulation results are then compared to published data. Also, the created soil models are compared to each other to determine the optimum one based on computational time efficiency and accuracy. SPH, as the accurate current method for soil modeling, has long computational solving time. In this thesis FEA/SPH hybrid soil models are studied and modified to achieve lower computational solving time while having the desirable accuracy. Rolling resistance of
tire on each soil model is carried out through various loads and inflation pressures and the simulation results are compared to physical test results to examine the accuracy of each soil model. The new hybrid soil model created in this thesis reduces the computational CPU time almost by half and slightly increases accuracy compared to full SPH soil model.

▼ The objective of this study is to develop a high-fidelity physics-based flexible
tire model that can be fully integrated into multibody dynamics computer algorithms for use in on-road and off-road vehicle dynamics simulation without ad-hoc co-simulation techniques. Despite the fact detailed finite element
tire models using explicit finite element software have been widely utilized for structural design of tires by
tire manufactures, it is recognized in the
tire industry that existing state-of-the-art explicit finite element
tire models are not capable of predicting the transient
tire force characteristics accurately under severe vehicle maneuvering conditions due to the numerical instability that is essentially inevitable for explicit finite element procedures for severe loading scenarios and the lack of transient (dynamic)
tire friction model suited for FE
tire models. Furthermore, to integrate the deformable
tire models into multibody full vehicle simulation, co-simulation technique could be an option for commercial software. However, there exist various challenges in co-simulation for the transient vehicle maneuvering simulation in terms of numerical stability and computational efficiency. The transient
tire dynamics involves rapid changes in contact forces due to the abrupt braking and steering input, thus use of co-simulation requires very small step size to ensure the numerical stability and energy balance between two separate simulation using different solvers.
In order to address these essential and challenging issues on the high-fidelity flexible
tire model suited for multibody vehicle dynamics simulation, a physics-based
tire model using the flexible multibody dynamics approach is proposed in this study. To this end, a continuum mechanics based shear deformable laminated composite shell element is developed based on the finite element absolute nodal coordinate formulation for modeling the complex fiber reinforced rubber
tire structure. The assumed natural strain (ANS) and enhanced assumed strain (EAS) approaches are introduced for alleviating element lockings exhibited in the element. Use of the concept of the absolute nodal coordinate formulation leads to various advantages for
tire dynamics simulation in that (1) constant mass matrix can be obtained for fully nonlinear dynamics simulation; (2) exact modeling of rigid body motion is ensured when strains are zero; and (3) non-incremental solution procedure utilized in the general multibody dynamics computer algorithm can be directly applied without specialized updating schemes for finite rotations. Using the proposed shear deformable laminated composite shell element, a physics-based flexible
tire model is developed. To account for the transient
tire friction characteristics including the friction-induced hysteresis that appears in severe maneuvering conditions, the distributed parameter LuGre
tire friction model is integrated into the flexible
tire model. To this end, the contact patch predicted by the structural
tire model is discretized into…
