Efficient experimental identification of three-dimensional tyre structural properties

Efficient experimental identification of three-dimensional tyre structural properties Modal testing is routinely applied to tyres for the identification of structural parameters and prediction of their vibration response to excitations. The present work focuses on the more demanding case of modal testing with the aim of constructing a full mathematical model of a tyre, appropriate for use in a generic time-based simulation. For this purpose, the less common free–free boundary condition is employed for the wheel, while the tyre belt is excited in all three directions, namely radial tangential and lateral. To improve efficiency, a novel partial identification method is developed for the mode shapes, whereby measured and predicted frequency responses are matched around distinct resonance peaks, while eliminating the effect of out-of-band modes. Axial symmetry of the tyre requires high purity mode shapes to avoid angular dependency of the tyre’s response. For this reason, experimental mode shapes are digitally filtered and combined with their orthogonal counterparts. Processed data reveal apparent repetition of selected mode shapes, and this is attributed to rim deflection. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part D: Journal of Automobile Engineering SAGE

Abstract

Modal testing is routinely applied to tyres for the identification of structural parameters and prediction of their vibration response to excitations. The present work focuses on the more demanding case of modal testing with the aim of constructing a full mathematical model of a tyre, appropriate for use in a generic time-based simulation. For this purpose, the less common free–free boundary condition is employed for the wheel, while the tyre belt is excited in all three directions, namely radial tangential and lateral. To improve efficiency, a novel partial identification method is developed for the mode shapes, whereby measured and predicted frequency responses are matched around distinct resonance peaks, while eliminating the effect of out-of-band modes. Axial symmetry of the tyre requires high purity mode shapes to avoid angular dependency of the tyre’s response. For this reason, experimental mode shapes are digitally filtered and combined with their orthogonal counterparts. Processed data reveal apparent repetition of selected mode shapes, and this is attributed to rim deflection.
