Tire-pavement-interaction
Multi-physical and multi-scale theoretical-numerical modelling of the tire-pavement-interaction
Research topics
- Development of a general understanding of the complex interactions of coupled vehicle-tire-pavement system
- Efficient and reliable structural analysis and prediction of the thermo-mechanical behaviour of the tire-pavement-system to obtain deeper knowledge on the short term dynamical processes inside the pavement at single overruns by steady state rolling
- Obtaining deeper knowledge on the short term dynamical processes inside the pavement at single overruns by steady state rolling as well as on the thermo-mechanical and inelastic structural bahavior of tires at varying loads, velocities and driving manoevres
- Deduction of parameters for an improved durability and less susceptibility to damage of pavement structures
- Improved understanding of processes inside the pavement structure in consequence of multiple overruns under consideration of varying pavement temperature due to climatic impact
