  1. 1. Modelling the Occurrence and Fate of Microplastics Caused by Tyre Wear on Highway E18

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Aniruddha Kshirsagar; [2023]
    Keywords : Tyre Wear Plastics; stormwater system; Microplastics; settling; hetero-aggregation; modelling; Modellering; mikroplaster;

    Abstract : The accumulation of microplastics (MPs) are a growing concern for the environment, the maximum contributor to the MP pollution is tyre wear particles or TWPs. TWPs can accumulate in the environment and remain there for long periods of time and hence have the ability to disrupt ecosystems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Optimal control of articulated vehicles for tyre wear minimisation

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Vallan Maroof; [2021]
    Keywords : Articulated Vehicles; Optimal Control; Tyre Wear Minimisation; Sensitivity Analysis; Motion Planning; Lastbil; Ruttplanering; Däckslitage Minimering; Känslighetsanalys; Optimal Styrning;

    Abstract : Tyre wear is a significant problem on today's road vehicles, particularly for heavy trucks. As the tyre wears, microplastics is released in the air causing long term health issues and environmental pollution. With the introduction of automated vehicles there is a big potential to improve tyre wear of heavy trucks. READ MORE

  3. 3. 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. 4. Active and semi-active suspensions for articulated vehicles to minimise tyre wear

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Haoran Zhang; [2021]
    Keywords : Articulated vehicle; tyre wear; quarter car model; semi-active and active suspension; Ledat fordon; däckslitage; kvartsbilsmodell; semiaktiv och aktiv fjädring;

    Abstract : Tyre wear is a vital problem in vehicles, especially in articulated vehicles because of their heavier axle loads. Tyre wear can not only do harm to vehicle dynamics but also cause tyre particle emissions. Therefore, solutions that can minimise tyre wear are where this thesis work focuses. READ MORE

  5. 5. 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
