Disassembly of an inflated wheel on a vehicle and the resulting tire blowout may cause flying debris or complete loss of may cause serious injury or death. control of a moving vehicle. The diameter shown on the tire must match the stamped wheel diameter exactly. WARNING: Inflating a tire with a hand held air chuck is dangerous. Use an OSHA approved tire inflation safety cage. WARNING: Improperly applied or excess paint can cause unexpected wheel failure that could result in serious injury or death. Excess paint could cause wheel assembly nuts to loosen, resulting in a wheel failure and sudden loss of air pressure and complete loss of vehicle control. Assembly Preparation CAUTION: Check torque (in tightening direction only) of assembly nuts at 50‐100 miles IMPORTANT: Federal OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) regulations [80‐160 KM].

  • Development of a Steer Axle Tire Blowout Model For
    DEVELOPMENT OF A STEER AXLE TIRE BLOWOUT MODEL FOR TRACTOR SEMITRAILERS IN TRUCKSIM THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Krishnan Veeraraghavan Chakravarthy Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering The Ohio State University 2013 Master's Examination Committee: Dr. Dennis A. Guenther, Advisor Dr. Gary Heydinger Copyright by Krishnan Chakravarthy Veeraraghavan 2013 ABSTRACT Tractor Semitrailer handling is one of the key issues in today’s highway traffic safety research. When accidents happen with tractor semitrailers, possibilities of multiple vehicle crashes are always high. Thus it is important to study the handling and control of tractor trailers in accident scenarios. Tire blowout is one of the most common types of failure which may cause vehicle crashes. With experimental testing for such studies being expensive, vehicle dynamic simulation goes a long way in supplementing the capabilities of real field testing. The primary goal of this thesis is to develop a tire blowout model for a tractor semitrailer in TruckSim¬¬TM. Experimental data from a left steer axle tire blowout of a tractor trailer is considered for modeling. The effect of tire blowout on vehicle dynamic aspects of the tire like rolling resistance, effective rolling radius, vertical stiffness and other tire forces are studied. The tractor semitrailer model is developed from previously conducted braking simulation models in TruckSim. From the experimental data, the behavior of the tractor trailer and the left steer axle tire are studied. A tire blowout model for the left steer axle of the tractor is created within TruckSim for simulation.

  • Study on the Stability Control of Vehicle Tire Blowout Based on Run-Flat Tire
    Article Study on the Stability Control of Vehicle Tire Blowout Based on Run-Flat Tire Xingyu Wang 1 , Liguo Zang 1,*, Zhi Wang 1, Fen Lin 2 and Zhendong Zhao 1 1 Nanjing Institute of Technology, School of Automobile and Rail Transportation, Nanjing 211167, China; [email protected] (X.W.); [email protected] (Z.W.); [email protected] (Z.Z.) 2 College of Energy and Power Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing 210016, China; fl[email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In order to study the stability of a vehicle with inserts supporting run-flat tires after blowout, a run-flat tire model suitable for the conditions of a blowout tire was established. The unsteady nonlinear tire foundation model was constructed using Simulink, and the model was modified according to the discrete curve of tire mechanical properties under steady conditions. The improved tire blowout model was imported into the Carsim vehicle model to complete the construction of the co-simulation platform. CarSim was used to simulate the tire blowout of front and rear wheels under straight driving condition, and the control strategy of differential braking was adopted. The results show that the improved run-flat tire model can be applied to tire blowout simulation, and the performance of inserts supporting run-flat tires is superior to that of normal tires after tire blowout. This study has reference significance for run-flat tire performance optimization.
