1. 1. Adaptive Rolling Radius Estimation

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Rickard Wretlind; William Wärn; [2023]
   Keywords : Rolling Radius; Estimation; Rolling Radius Estimation; Tire; Tires;

   Abstract : Tire tread health is essential for safe operation of a passenger vehicle. Worn out tires significantly increases the risk of traffic accidents and hydroplaning. This thesis investigates the possibility to detect tire tread wear by estimating the effective rolling radius of a tire. READ MORE

3. 2. Tyre Performance Estimation during Normal Driving

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Marcus Grip; [2021]
   Keywords : tyre performance; tread wear; tyre wear; online estimation; friction performance; velocity performance; friction potential; longitudinal stiffness; tyre stiffness;

   Abstract : Driving with tyres not appropriate for the actual conditions can not only lead to accidents related to the tyres, but also cause detrimental effects on the environment via emission of rubber particles if the driving conditions are causing an unexpectedly high amount of tread wear. Estimating tyre performance in an online setting is therefore of interest, and the feasibility to estimate friction performance, velocity performance, and tread wear utilizing available information from the automotive grade sensors is investigated in this thesis.

4. 3. Connected Tyres : Real-time Tyre Monitoring System for Fleet& Autonomous Vehicles with Tyre WearEstimation through Sensor Fusion

   University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

   Author : Mingzhe He; Xinyu Lin; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Tyres are one crucial part for vehicles, as they are the only contact pointbetween the vehicle and the road. Intelligent tyres are a trending new subjectin the tyre industry. They are designed to monitor various tyre states and sendthis information to both drivers and remote servers. READ MORE

5. 4. PREVENTION OF WHEEL WEAR, A CASE STUDY : Developing a functioning wheel profile for rail-mounted transportation trolley.

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Agnieszka Inglot; Oskar Franzén; [2019]
   Keywords : Wear prediction; Rail; Flanged wheel; Archards model; Hertzian contact problem; Abrasive wear; Adhesive wear; Theorethical prediction model;

   Abstract : This bachelor’s degree project aimed to improve the wheel profile of a rail mounted trolley and determine the cause of wheel failure. The proceedings of this project where modelled after an approach for solving wear problems with an emphasis on designing for sustainability. READ MORE

6. 5. Influence of Switches and Crossings on Wheel Wear of a Freight Vehicle

   University essay from KTH/Spårfordon

   Author : Emmanouil Doulgerakis; [2013]
   Keywords : dynamic vehicle-track interaction; turnout; switch crossing; wheel wear; wheel-rail contact geometry;

   Abstract : Turnouts (Switches & Crossings) are important components in railway networks, as they provide the necessary flexibility for train operations by allowing trains to change among the tracks. But the turnout’s geometry with discontinuity in rail profiles and lack of transition curve causes additional wear both on track and on vehicle. READ MORE
