일반적으로 타이어의 마모도나 비정상적인 마모를 알아보기 위해서는 운전자나 정비사가 직접 타이어를 육안으로 타이어의 마모도 및 타이어의 이상 여부를 확인하거나, 측정 게이지 장비를 이용한 방법을 이용한다. 이러한 방법은 개개인의 주관적인 판단이 들어가거나 시간적인 부담과 휠 얼라인먼트 장비를 사용하는 비용을 지불하게 되어 운전자가 받는 부담을 더욱 클 수밖에 없다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 이상마모와 타이어의 마모도를 체크 하고자 복수개의 레이저 센서를 이용하여 각 타이어마다 이상마모와 타이어의 마모도를 체크하고 타이어의 정보를 알기 위해 타이어의 옆면을 체크 하는 시스템을 개발하여 주관적인 판단을 극복하고 객관적이고 정확한 판단을 내릴 것이다.

Contacting with ground in the post-card area size only, tire supports entire automobile weight. As well, it characterizes most of automobile running performance. Among the design parameters, the carcass contour becomes a key design factor. This paper deals with the time-effective optimal design of tire crown contour in order to improve the tire wear performance by employing a back-propagation neural network model.

In this study, different types and shapes of various particles produced on the asphalt pavement road were analyzed. Road dust at a bus stop was collected and was separated as per their sizes by using a sieve shaker. Tire-road wear particles (TRWPs), asphalt pavement wear particles (APWPs), mineral particles, plant-related particles, glass beads, glass particles, road paint wear particles, plastic particles, and fibers were observed herein. The types and shapes of the particles varied depending on their sizes. TRWPs larger than 500 ㎛ were not observed. TRWPs with a size of 212-500 ㎛ were rarely present, but many TRWPs with a size smaller than 212 ㎛ were observed. APWPs were observed for whole-particle sizes of below 1,000 ㎛. A variety of particles on the road would lead to lower friction between the tires and the road, thereby increasing the braking distance of vehicles. Most of the particles include mineral particles, glass particles, and APWPs with rough surfaces. Therefore, the abrasion of the tire tread would accelerate owing to friction with the tough particles.

Intending to develop a new rubber curing process using only microwave, the both the characteristics of cure and the mechanical properties of rubbers for the tire tread, for which a green styrene-butadiene compounds had been cured with 2.45 GHz microwave, have been compared with those of the custom thermal cured rubber. The unintentional hot spot formation in the compound during the microwave curing has not found where the compound has a microwave absorbing ceramic powders in 4.18 weight percents and the supplying voltage has been adjusted to 90 volts. The new microwave process accomplished preheating to 418K in a quarter of the thermal cure time. The average tensile strength of the microwave-cured rubber indicating $190kg/cm^3$ was compatible to that of the thermal cure. In conclusion, the new microwave cure had approved to be applicable in a commercial plant.

Cryogenic crushing techniques have been employed for recycling waste rubber articles and for extracting residual organic additives present in rubber samples. Rubber particulate derived from tire tread abrasion is one of the key components of road dust. Therefore, in this work, we prepared rubber particulates using a cryogenic crusher and characterized their shapes as well as size distributions according to the type of rubber. The rubber particulates exhibited uneven surfaces with the presence of some small pieces. The order of the particle size distribution was observed to be: NR > BR > SBR. Subsequently, carbon black was added; this led to a decrease in the particle size and the shape becoming rougher. The crushed particulates of the carbon black-filled samples comprised agglomerated shapes of small pieces, which were similar in shape to that of wear debris in tire tread. It was discovered that crosslink density was one of the principal factors that led to the formation of small crushed particulates. The small particulates obtained by cryogenic crushing can be utilized as model rubber particulates for researching micro dust.

As automobile technology advances, a smoother ride with less noise is desired. In order to achieve these purposes, a study on the vibration and noise produced by a moving automobile was carried out and a model for tire vibration characteristics which influence the ride performance was developed. The model was verified through simulations and experiments. The developed model was then applied to a half car model and automobile vibrations were analyzed. The effects of tire design parameters on the automobile vibration energy were investigated. The results from laboratory and field tests confirm the validity of the analytical model. The 17-DOF half-car model was built to analyze automobile vibration. The characteristics of the nonlinear model for a shock absorber were applied to this model. The results from the present 17-DOF half car model incorporating the analytical tire model with tire design parameters, were compared with the 5-DOF half car model where the tire was modeled with linear springs. The results of the 17-DOF model are close to the experimental results. Using the 17-DOF model, the influence of tire design parameter were considered. According to the analysis results, the vibrations at seat/body/wheel were predicted by simulation and experiment.

국내에서 차량의 수요는 꾸준히 높아지고 있다. 높아지는 관심과 비례하여 자동차 관련 사고는 더욱 빈번하게 발생한다. 이러한 차량 사고의 원인들 중 타이어 문제로 인한 사고들이 존재한다. 현재 차량 사용자들은 타이어의 마모를 확인하기 위해 눈대중으로 판단을 하거나 동전을 활용하여 트레이드와 마모 한계선을 판단 한다. 이러한 시각적 판단만으로는 정확한 관측이 어렵고 타이어 교체시기를 알아보기 힘들다. 따라서 객관적인 자료를 통하여 시각적이고 부정확한 판별이 아닌 객관적인 데이터를 활용하여 정확하고 간편하게 운전자의 타이어 상태와 교체여부를 알릴 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.

The demand for truck bus radial (TBR) tires with enhanced fuel efficiency and wear resistance have grown in recent years. In addition, as the issue of particulate matter and air pollution increases, efforts are being made to reduce the generation of particulate matter. In this study, we investigated the effect of varying the content of butadiene rubber (BR) on the properties of the rubber compounds and the amount of particulate matter in the TBR tire tread compound. Furthermore, we utilized carbon black in the NR/BR blend compounds owing to its excellent compatibility, and we used silica in the ENR-25/BR blend compounds because it can interact chemically with epoxide groups. The NR/BR blend compounds and the ENR-25/BR blend compounds were evaluated by varying their BR content between 20 phr and 30 phr. The results showed that the ENR-25/BR blend compounds had superior wear resistance than the NR/BR blend compounds. This was caused by the interaction between silica and ENR. In addition, it was confirmed that the increased wear resistance as the BR content increased. Furthermore, compared to the NR/BR blend compounds, ENR-25/BR blend compounds exhibited a lower tan 𝛿 value at 60℃ because silica was used as filler. This indicates a higher fuel efficiency. The measurement results for wear particulate matter showed that as increasing the BR content resulted in generation of less wear particulate matter. This was caused by the increased wear resistance. Moreover, the ENR-25/BR blend compounds with excellent filler-rubber interaction exhibited lower quantities of generated wear particulate matters as compared to the NR/BR blend compounds.

본 논문은 차량이 급제동으로 인해 도로 위에 생성된 스키드마크와 같이 형태가 모호하게 나타난 영상을 인식하기 위해 FE-SM/SONN을 제안하였다. FE-SM/SONN은 타이어 트레드 패턴이 뭉개져서 나타나는 스키드마크 경우, 그 패턴이 모호한 영상으로 취득된다. 이를 인식하기 위해 퍼지 이론과 트레드 패턴의 특징을 이용한 자기 조직 신경망 인식기를 통해 스키드마크를 인식하는 방법이다. 이러한 실험을 위해 48개 타이어모델과 144개 스키드마크가 사용되었고, 전체 인식율은 89%이며, 비교 분석을 위해서는 기존 역전파 인식기에 비해 인식률 면에서 13.51%가 향상되었고, FE-MCBP에 비해 8.78% 향상을 보였다. 이 논문의 기대효과로는 모호한 영상의 특징을 추출하여 인식이 가능하였고, 트레드 패턴 영상이 그레이 영상으로 나타날 경우도 퍼지 이론에 의해 인식이 가능한 것으로 연구결과 나타났다.
