摘要: |
This report presents the first world-wide tire/pavement contact-stress model worldwide based on the artificial neural
networks (ANN) developed by the authors at Pennsylvania Transportation Institute at The Pennsylvania State University.
These models represent the first mathematical representation of real, measured, contact stress at wide ranges of
vertical loads and inflation pressures for two types of tires. The developed ANN model has the capabilities to generate
such complex stress distribution patterns under a tire at any given load and inflation pressure for a specific tire type
used for the ANN training. The information given in this report is considered to be an important contribution to the
ongoing efforts to improve tire/pavement contact-stress modeling and analysis. The neural network representation of a
tire contact-stress distribution is named as "Neuro-Patch Model.®
The neural network models have been trainee using precise measured three-dimensional contact-stresses distribution
patterns obtained from low-speed rolling tire tests conducted by the University of California at Berkeley, and data have
been supplied by FHWA. In this study, two types of tires, namely Goodyear 11 R22.5 radial-ply and Goodyear 10.00X20
bias-ply truck tires, were modeled at different inflation pressures ranging from 520 to 920 kPa and vertical loads ranging
from 26 to 56 kN.
