At the same time, the appearance of smart tire systems will give rise to better tire performance, better vehicle control, and the enhancement of current intelligent systems for autonomous vehicles. In contrast, innovations for the road system, which must carry the increasing traffic loads, have been rare in recent years. However, to solve current and future challenges of mobility related to road transport (e.g., durability, safety, efficiency, ecology, cost, etc.), the potential for innovative trends and digitalization of all interacting components—vehicle, tire, and road—should be used to change the industrial ecosystem and paradigm of transport in human life. The vision of a digital twin of the road system, which is the digital/virtual image (reality model in space and time) of the vehicle, tire, and roadway, would enable, among other aspects, the future pioneering condition predictions of single components (ranging from manufacturing, service to failure state), targeted traffic control, optimal synthesis of building materials and structures, interfaces to automated driving, as well as reduction in emissions. The digital twin of the road system contains and combines all available and relevant information about the “road of the future” system from physical examinations and modeling as well as from data-driven models and further available data (e.g., real-time sensor data from the vehicle, tire and road sensors, data models, etc.). This contribution presents the current state of research, tasks, and challenges toward achieving the digital twin of the road system as well as the potential of the digital twin for future mobility.","PeriodicalId":44601,"journal":{"name":"Tire Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41754514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It consists of several tread blocks with different shape and can be realized by siped structures to improve the traction on the pavement, in particular in wet, icy, or snowy conditions. The blocks are usually made of elastomer materials, which possess viscoelastic behavior. Viscoelasticity can be described by classical rheological models or, alternatively, as shown in this paper, by fractional viscoelastic models. Fractional models can fit the material properties better with fewer parameters.\u0000 Each single tire tread block shows periodically frictional impacts with the pavement. The contact configurations and transitions among stick and slip or impact and detaching can be formulated as a linear complementarity problem, whose solution estimates the local contact forces.\u0000 We simulate transient deformations of a tire tread block by developing a discretized fractional viscoelastic model. The focus is on the deformation process of a tread block with siped structure on different ice tracks with frictional contact. In particular the interlocking of the tread block lips with the edges on the ice surface and the self-contact of the lips are considered. The simulation results are compared to measurements on a high velocity linear testing bench. The contact forces of the frictional contact for plane and rough surfaces on ice and also the deformation process of siped tread blocks, where self-contact can occur, are investigated. The qualitative comparison between results out of simulations and experiments shows a good agreement.","PeriodicalId":44601,"journal":{"name":"Tire Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46157323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared with a general tire F&M measuring method, it provides a detailed insight into the generation of tire F&M characteristics by measuring the tire carcass deformation during static and side-slip maneuvers. A tire observation system with two GOM optical measuring facilities was developed to characterize the tire carcass deformation of the standing and rolling tire. Structural parameters of tire carcass flexibility have been identified based on a polynomial physical tire model with the help of measured bending curves of the tire carcass. A good correlation between the measured and estimated tire force and moment has proven the validity of the developed characterization method.","PeriodicalId":44601,"journal":{"name":"Tire Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49417192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Long bio-alkyd resin (LAR) was also used to envelope the inorganic ES particles and to aid in dispersing the filler in the NR matrix. The effect of the coated ES filler (ESR) in the rubber mix on the morphology, mechanical properties, and swelling was investigated. The ES filler and its biocomposites were characterized by X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared imaging microscope (FT-IR-IM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis. The morphological data reveal that the resin enhances the dispersion of the ES filler in the NR matrix. These data were confirmed by the results obtained from FT-IR-IM. The swelling and mechanical properties were significantly improved when the coated filler was used in NR matrix, especially at 20 wt.% ESR. DSC thermograms revealed that the increase in the resin caused the glass transition temperature (Tg) to be shifted to a lower temperature. The obtained results show that the bioenveloping ESR can be used as potential alternative for green tire and vehicle applications rather than conventional petroleum-based filler.","PeriodicalId":44601,"journal":{"name":"Tire Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48751230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
