DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The pneumatic tyre is a complex structure which performs a variety of functions essential to the effective operation of most vehicles. The performance of a tyre can be considered in terms of a b257 of criteria; durability, tread wear, noise, energy consumption (rolling resistance), vibrations and traction. In this report the authors review recent advances in all these areas. An additional indexed section containing several hundred abstracts from the Rapra Polymer Library database gives useful references for further reading.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book highlights the mechanics of tire performance, offering detailed explanations of deriving basic equations for the fundamental properties of tires, and discussing ways to improve tire performance using these equations. It also compares the theory with practical measurements. The book commences with composite mechanics, which is the fundamental theory for belt and carcass tires, and covers classical, modified and discrete lamination theory. It then addresses the theory of tire shape and spring properties and the mechanics of tread pattern contact properties, as was well as the performance of various tires. This comprehensive book is a valuable resource for engineers involved in tire design and offers unique insights and examples of improvement of tire performances.
