  1. 1. Modelling of Dynamic Contact - Exemplified on the Tyre/Road Interaction

    Author : Krister Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tyre dynamics; rolling noise; rolling contact; dynamic contact; tyre road noise; tyre road interaction;

    Abstract : Noise is a severe problem in modern society. Road traffic noise is a substantial contributor and the tyre/road interaction is the main noise source for normal driving conditions. Despite more than 30 years of research, there is a lack of quantitative tyre/road noise prediction models. READ MORE

  2. 2. Geographical Information Technologies – Decision Support for Road Maintenance in Uganda

    Author : Lydia Mazzi Kayondo-Ndandiko; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Data Model; Dynamic Segmentation; Geographical Information Technologies GITs ; Geographical Information Systems for Transportation GIS-T ; Linear referencing; Methodological Framework; Research and Development; Road maintenance; Road Infrastructure Maintenance RIM ; Science Technology and Innovation; Spatial Data Infrastructure; Uganda;

    Abstract : This study set out to develop a framework within which the use of Geographical Information Technologies (GITs) can be enhanced in Road Infrastructure Maintenance (RIM) in Uganda. Specifically it was guided by 3 objectives; 1. To assess the gaps in the use of GITs for RIM in Uganda and the limitations to accessing these technologies, 2. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modelling Interfacial Details in Tyre/Road Contact — Adhesion Forces and Non-Linear Contact Stiffness

    Author : Patrik Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rough surface; tyre dynamics; tyre road noise; adherence force; adhesion forces; tyre road interaction; dynamic contact; non-linear contact stiffness;

    Abstract : Rolling resistance, noise generation, and wear are all determined by the interaction process between the rolling automotive vehicle tyre and the road. A deep understandingof the interaction process is needed for optimisation aiming at reducing these effects. READ MORE

  4. 4. Adaptive behaviour in traffic : An individual road user perspective

    Author : Sara Nygårdhs; Björn Johansson; Dick de Waard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Adaptation; road-user; comfort zone;

    Abstract : Road-user adaptation is a prerequisite for traffic to run smoothly. By adaptation, the road user aims to ensure a feeling of comfort according to his or her present state and capability. In this thesis, adaptive behaviour of car drivers and cyclists in response to different factors is explored, using the individual perspective of the road user. READ MORE

  5. 5. Contact stiffness in tyre/road noise modelling and speed dependencies of tyre/road noise generation mechanisms

    Author : Julia Winroth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tyre road noise; Air-pumping; Tyre road contact stiffness; Speed exponent analysis; Tyre road contact modelling;

    Abstract : Tools for simulating tyre/road noise are highly valuable in the efforts to limit the negative consequences of road traffic noise.A numerical tyre/road noise simulation tool was in this study used to investigate how the contact stiffness parameter affects the predicted tyre/road noise.
