Evaluation of Tire/Surfacing/Base Contact Stresses and Texture Depth
Tire rolling resistance has a major impact on vehicle fuel consumption. Rolling resistance is the loss of energy due to the interaction between the tire and the pavement surface. This interaction is a complicated combination of stresses and strains which depend on both tire and pavement related fact...
