The tire bead, as the most important load-bearing component at the bead area, is closely related to the durability of the tire, but its structure is developing slowly. For this reason, the topological whole bead design was proposed, although it performs well, many defects existed due to the design based on traditional experience. Therefore, this paper studies the topology shape optimization algorithm, delves into the main criterion based on von Mises and the interlaminar shear stress, and provides guidance for the structurally optimal design of the 265/35R18 radial tire whole bead. The finite element simulation results show that the von Mises of the inner end of the chafer and the end of the carcass cord are reduced by 14.48% and 24.12%, respectively. The interlaminar shear stress decreased by 28.96% and 49.51%, respectively. The von Mises of chafer and carcass cord decreased by 13.17% to 40.36% and 7.71% to 20.51%, respectively. The optimization design is of great significance to further improve the safety performance of tires.

“…Moreover, Rugsaj et al proposed an interconnected mesh-spoke NPT model and compared it with the honeycomb and commercial NPT structures [ 21 ]. Zang et al investigated the mechanical characteristics of an NPT with a rhombus structure under pavement conditions, which provided guidance for the structural optimization of NPT [ 22 ]. However, the abovementioned studies were mainly focused on a simulated analysis, and experimental tests of the deformable structure or prototype sample have seldom been investigated.…”

A non-pneumatic tire (NPT) overcomes the shortcomings of a traditional pneumatic tire such as wear, punctures and blowouts. In this respect, it shows great potential in improving driving safety, and has received great attention in recent years. In this paper, a carbon fiber-reinforced polyethylene terephthalate (PET/CF) honeycomb is proposed as a support structure for NPTs, which can be easily prepared using 3D printing technology. The experimental results showed that the PET/CF has high strength and modulus and provides excellent mechanical properties. Then, a finite element (FE) model was established to predict the compression performance of auxetic honeycombs. Good agreement was achieved between the experimental data and FE analysis. The influence of the cell parameters on the compressive performance of the support structure were further analyzed. Both the wall thickness and the vertically inclined angle could modulate the mechanical performance of the NPT. Finally, the application of vertical force is used to analyze the static load of the structure. The PET/CF honeycomb as the support structure of the NPT showed outstanding bearing capacity and stiffness in contrast with elastomer counterparts. Consequently, this study broadens the material selection for NPTs and proposes a strategy for manufacturing a prototype, which provides a reference for the design and development of non-pneumatic tires.

Against a backdrop of increasing depletion of natural and energy resources and worsening global warming, the tire industry, like many other industries, is currently confronted with the pressing need to enhance not only its resilience but also the sustainability and cost-effectiveness of its products through advanced numerical simulations. Numerical simulation is a valuable tool in the tire development process that provides manufacturers with in-depth insights into their products from design to mass production. This paper aims to introduce a detailed finite element-based modeling process for tires that can be used for a wide range of simulations, including steady state, transient rolling, and failure scenarios such as layer delamination, blowout, and part breakage. The selected tire for the implementation in this study is designated 175/75R14 and was modeled in a static loading setup in ABAQUS standard with an implicit scheme considering linear elastic rubber compounds and other assumptions. Unlike the commonly used homogenized approach for reinforced layers, the proposed method takes into account the real physical and mechanical properties of the tire structure. In addition, important information pertaining to the creation of mesh and the interactions between elements is provided. The obtained results align with the assumptions and can serve as a proof of concept for more detailed and advanced tire modeling and enhancement in the future.
