Most commercial heavy-duty truck trailers are equipped with either a two sensor, one modulator (2S1M) or four sensor, two modulator (4S2M) anti-lock braking system (ABS).[...]

For optimizing the performance of vehicles, tire force and moment data generated by a tire testing machine is crucial to automotive manufacturers. The data representation[...]

This thesis presents a research attempt at finding out a viable retrofit system design for cable median barriers using reclaimed tires. Finite element analysis was used t[...]

Waste generation rates are increasing so there is a need to determine alternative methods of dealing with waste to accommodate a sustainable future. Polyethylene Terephth[...]

The ultimate goal of the present work is to evaluate the ability to produce highlyresolved particle image velocimetry (PIV) flow images of tracer particles dispersedin a [...]

Tire cornering force and moment data from an indoor tire testing machine is very important to auto-makers and tire researchers with respect to the performance of vehicles[...]

Modified codes have been developed to improve semi-empirical tire modeling using the 2002 and MF6.1.2(2012) versions of the steady-state, pure side-slip Pacejka model. Th[...]

It has long been accepted that tire wear is directly related to the energy generated due to shear at the contact patch. Tire wear at any given point on the contact patch [...]

Tires are one of the main components for the vehicle ground interaction. In orderto accurately evaluate and determine the dynamic behavior of vehicles, various tiremodels[...]

Tires provide the only point of contact between the car and the road. The safety of the driver, passenger depends on the contact patch between the tire and the road, a me[...]
