The radial tire was tested by the tire comprehensive testing machine to analyze the stiffness characteristics and grounding characteristics of the tire under different tire pressure and vertical load. The results show that the stiffness of different directions changes when the tire pressure increases. The longitudinal stiffness increases slightly and the torsional stiffness increases when the vertical load increases. As the vertical load increases, the tread impression changes from the ellipse to the approximately rectangle, and the area of the tread impression is slightly increased. As the tire pressure increases, the area of the tread impression is significantly reduced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
