Abstract This paper reports, the application of Taguchi Design of Experiments (DoE) and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) for finding the optimal combinations and analysis of the effect of individual layer thickness on the performance of SMR sensor. The optimum combination of design parameters and its performance as a sensor have been predicted with DoE and validated through the finite element modeling (FEM) simulation. The optimization has been done to achieve enhancement in coupling coefficient of SMR sensor. The best optimized thickness of metal electrodes, piezoelectric, sensing, insulation low and high acoustic impedance layers have been found to be 0.2µm, 2µm, 0.68µm, 0.3µm, 1.028µm and 1.008µm, respectively. The results of the present study show that for the optimized dimension of SMR structure, simulated values of coupling coefficient (K2eff), Quality factor (Q) and figure of merit (FoM) are 0.075596 (or 7.5596%), 1171.6 and ≈ 88, respectively. Optimized structure performance has been compared with the existing SMR sensors and it is observed that proposed SMR exhibits performance enhancement in terms of FoM by ≈ 37 %.

Abstract Tire vibration modes are known to play a key role in vehicle ride, for applications ranging from passenger cars to earthmover equipment. Inputs to the tire such as discrete impacts (harshness), rough road surfaces, tire nonuniformities, and tread patterns can potentially excite tire vibration modes. Many parameters affect the frequency of tire vibration modes: tire size, tire construction, inflation pressure, and operating conditions such as speed, load, and temperature. This paper discusses the influence of these parameters on tire vibration modes and describes how these tire modes influence vehicle ride quality. Results from both finite element modeling and modal testing are discussed.

Abstract Development of the banded radial tire is discussed. A major contribution of this tire design is a reliable run-flat capability over distances exceeding 160 km (100 mi). Experimental tire designs and materials are considered; a brief theoretical discussion of the mechanics of operation is given based on initial two-dimensional studies and later on more complete finite element modeling. Results of laboratory tests for cornering, rolling resistance, and braking are presented. Low rolling resistance, good cornering and braking properties, and low tread wear rate along with good puncture resistance are among the advantages of the banded radial tire designs.
