Study on the Simulation of Radial Tire Wear Characteristics
Authors: ,
Abstract: The tire wear model is build based on Archard wear theory. In this tire wear model, the steady rolling of tire is considred. Moerover, the analisys for the steady rolling of tire is used in the simulation. In this paper, 195/65R15 tire is used to build a 3D tire FE model for simulation. The tire radial direction modal and natural frequency are calculated to valitate the 3D tire FE model. At first, using Pro/E and Abaqus software the tire patten is obtained. Next, the contact footprint and pressure between tire and road are analyzed with the tire rolling dynamics. The three situations are considered to analyze the state of tire wear, the side slip angles, the vertical load and the inner pressure.
