“…There are several constitutive models can be applied to represent the hyperelastic properties of rubber materials. [37][38][39][40] The Mooney-Rivlin model is selected for the prediction of rubber behaviours in our study, because it can adequately describe the mechanical behavior of rubber material when the deformation within 150%, thus, the Mooney-Rivlin model can satisfy the requirement of the performance of rubber material in practical application. The strain energy density function of Mooney-Rivlin model is expressed as Eq.…”

A combination of Finite Element Method (FEM) and Experiment Modal Analysis (EMA) have been employed here to characterize the structural dynamic response of mechanical elastic wheel (ME-Wheel) operating under a specific thermal environment. The influence of high thermal condition on the structural dynamic response of ME-Wheel is investigated. The obtained results indicate that the EMA results are in accordance with those obtained using the proposed Finite Element (FE) model, indicting the high reliability of this FE model applied in analyzing the modal of ME-Wheel working under practical thermal environment. It demonstrates that the structural dynamic response of ME-Wheel operating under a specific thermal condition can be predicted and evaluated using the proposed analysis method, which is beneficial for the dynamic optimization design of the wheel structure to avoid tire temperature related vibration failure and improve safety of tire.

“…Tyres are among the most important components of a vehicle system and play an essential role in supporting the load and cushioning the vehicle against road irregularities when longitudinal driving or braking forces are transmitted from the road to the wheels. 1 Moreover, the tyres generate lateral, cornering or camber forces to support the necessary directional control of the vehicle. Thus, the tyre characteristics are of crucial importance to the dynamic behaviour of the vehicle.…”

An innovative non-pneumatic tyre called the mechanical elastic wheel is introduced; significant challenges exist in the prediction of the dynamic interaction between this mechanical elastic wheel and soil containing an obstacle owing to its highly non-linear properties. To explore the mechanical properties of the mechanical elastic wheel and the soil, the finite element method is used, and a non-linear three-dimensional finite element wheel–soil interaction model is also established. Hyperelastic incompressible rubber, which is one of the main materials of the mechanical elastic wheel, is analysed using the Mooney–Rivlin model. The modified Drucker–Prager cap plasticity constitutive law is utilized to describe the behaviour of the soil, and the obstacle is represented as an elastic body. Simulations with different rotational speeds of the mechanical elastic wheel were conducted. The stress distribution and the displacement of the mechanical elastic wheel and the soil were obtained, and the effects of different rotational speeds on the displacement, the velocity and the acceleration of the hub centre are presented and discussed in detail. These results can provide useful information for optimization of the mechanical elastic wheel.

“…Various simulation studies [1,2] and experiment results [3,4] have shown that tire-pavement contact stress has a great influence on vehicle handling and stability. The contact stress between tire and road surface is affected by parameters, such as tire load, velocity, pavement characteristics, and the slip rate.…”

This paper aims to simulate the effects of different friction models on tire braking. A truck radial tire (295/80R22.5) was modeled and the model was validated with tire deflection. An exponential decay friction model that considers the effect of sliding velocity on friction coefficients was adopted for analyzing braking performance. The result shows that the exponential decay friction model used for evaluating braking ability meets design requirements of antilock braking system (ABS). The tire-pavement contact stress characteristics at various driving conditions (static, free rolling, braking, camber, and cornering) were analyzed. It is found that the change of driving conditions has direct influence on tire-pavement contact stress distribution. The results provide the guidance for tire braking performance evaluation.
