Understanding Tire Dynamics - Factors & Dissipation

AI Thread Summary
Tire dynamics involve understanding the contact area and slip area while a tire rotates on the road. Key factors influencing these areas include tire pressure, load, and road surface conditions. Dissipation primarily results from the friction between the tire and the road, as well as the material's damping properties. For further reading, "Tyre Vehicle Dynamics" by Pacjeka is recommended as a valuable resource. Understanding these elements is crucial for optimizing tire performance and vehicle handling.

can anybody please help me to understand some of the things regarding tire dynamics?

first of all , while tire is rotating on a road, what are the factors to be considered to find the contact area, and slip area?
second, dissipation, what is the main factor that lead to dissipation , is it the friction of road and tire or is it the damping in the material itself?
It would be nice if some one can suggest any gud text on this
thank you

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
