Regression equations based on the experi- mental data from several countries are given to describe their dependencies. The peak value of longitudiinal adhesion coefficient has a linear relationship with tire slip angle, but peak value of lateral has a complicated relationship; the optimal slip ratio of longitudinal has an exponent function relationship, the optimal slip ratio of lateral almost has nothinng to do with tire slipangle.展开更多

The physical model of the object(model of V-riblet surface distribution, hydroplaning model) and SST k-ω turbulence model were established for numerical analysis of tire hydroplaning. With the help of a orthogonal table L16(45), the parameters of V-riblet structure design compared to the smooth structure were analyzed, and obtained the priority level of the experimental factors as well as the best combination within the scope of the experiment. The simulation results show that V-riblet structure can reduce water flow resistance by disturbing the eddy movement in boundary layers. Then, the preferred type of V-riblet non-smooth structure was arranged on the bottom of tire grooves for hydroplaning performance analysis. The results show that bionic V-riblet non-smooth structure can effectively increase hydroplaning velocity and improve tire anti-hydroplaning performance. Bionic design of tire tread pattern grooves is a good way to promote anti-hydroplaning performance without increasing additional groove space, so that tire grip performance and roll noise are avoided due to grooves space enlargement.展开更多

Several prototypes have been achieved by the recortfiguration. By modeling relative comparison coefficients, these prototypes are analyzed in terms of geometrical parameter of trafficability, static stability and maneuverability. The effects of reconfiguration on these indices of robot performance can be compared, i.e. the variable height of chassis h has the biggest effect, the variable length of chassis 1 is the second, then is the camber angle β and the caster angle α. Some principles for reconfiguration are proposed.展开更多
