“…Tyre models may be classified in three main levels of complexity: basic, neglecting the belt inertia [9][10][11][12], suitable for simulations with frequencies up to approximatively 15 Hz and wavelength greater than approximatively 1.5 m, intermediate, considering the belt as a rigid ring elastically mounted on the rim [13][14][15], suitable for simulations up to 60-100 Hz and wavelength greater than 0.1-0.2 m, and advanced, allowing belt deflection [16][17][18][19], suitable for higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths. Finally, there are also models dedicated to the investigation of specific issues, such as tyre-temperature distribution [20], tyre wear [21], contact pressure [22,23], impulsive loading [24], hydroplaning [25,26].…”

Several approaches have been developed over the years for the modelling of the tyre behaviour in vehicle-dynamic applications. The so-called ‘rigid-ring’ models are among the classics for the modelling of the belt dynamics. Although there are several works dealing with the vibrating properties of tyres, the problem of the identification of the related rigid-ring model parameters has not been described other than qualitatively or partially. The aim of this work is thus to fill this gap and to devise a procedure for the experimental characterisation of such parameters, namely the frequency and damping of the in-plane and out-of-plane belt vibration modes as well as the associated masses and inertias. An experimental modal analysis (EMA) approach is employed, which involves an instrumented hammer combined with three-axial accelerometers roving on 16 stations equally spaced along the tyre circumference. The method is numerically demonstrated on the finite-element models of a motorcycle tyre and a car tyre. The approach is also experimentally validated on a real tyre. The rigid-ring vibration modes of the motorcycle tyre are in the range 70–220 Hz, while those of the car tyre are in the range 51–85 Hz. The ratios of the mass/inertia of the rigid ring to the mass/inertia of the tyre are in the range 40–87% and 68–74% for the motorcycle and car respectively.

“…As early as 1979, Mathematical methods have been adopted for mechanical analysis of radial tires. 2 Richards 3 used FEA method to analyze the tire structure-acoustic coupling. Böhm 4 used mathematical modeling method to analyze the influence of the nonlinear characteristics of rubber layers on the driving stability of tires on different road surfaces.…”

Tire burst is one of the hot issues in automobile market. Based on the tire burst problem of all-steel radial tire, the shear strain and strain energy density at the end of the belt layer are analyzed to extend the tire durability. A multi-objective optimization model was established by finite element analysis, and the function constraints conditions were set. The optimization scheme was determined using differential evolution (DE) method. The finite element simulation and the durability test of tire specimen show that tire performance has greatly improved after the optimization. The results show that the combination of the finite element analysis technique and the multi-objective optimization method can effectively reduce a lot of labor, material, and financial resources in the structural optimization of mechanical products.
