Contact Stress and Rolling Loss Estimation via Thermomechanical Interaction Modeling of a Truck Tire on a Pavement Layer
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Combined influence of temperature and mechanical deformations define the resulting contact stresses, heat flow, and rolling loss at the tire–pavement contact. In this study, the thermomechanical coupling of a hyperviscoelastic ...
Effect of Heavy-Duty Electric Vehicles on Tire–Pavement Contact Forces
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Electric vehicles offer higher acceleration than conventional internal combustion engines due to larger engine torque. The design and placement of battery packs in heavy-duty electric vehicles are still being optimized, ...
Verification and Validation of Pavement Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Model development activities are increasing in pavement research and engineering applications. At the same time, there is ambiguity and a lack of consistency with regard to checking and quantifying credibility and suitability ...
