The risk of accident increases significantly when tire rolls on ice comparing to the dry surface. The vehicle tire becomes the main component of force transmission to the road and necessity of investigating the tire behavior becomes of high importance. This paper presents results of tire force transmission measurement with two different winter tires at the same operating conditions. Longitudinal and lateral force coefficient characteristics as the functions of slip ratio and slip angle are presented and discussed. The results showed a different lateral and longitudinal performance because of different tread pattern and rubber compound.

In order to research the bionic mechanics in unsteady flow and the hydrodynamic performance of the oscillating tail fin, in this paper, an experimental device imitating bionic tail fin were built, the design concepts and the rolling systems of the mechanical tail fins were demonstrated, including the procedures and correlated works on the selection of the servo motors, online control and signal data collecting and processing. The movements of the mechanical tail fin could be optimized by the comparisons of the propulsion efficiency, thrust coefficient, lateral force coefficient and torque coefficient at different conditions. Meanwhile, error analysis is carried out to correct the movement curves and obtain more precise experimental data and results.

Against the problem of the aerodynamic interference effects on aerostatic coefficients between parallel continuous rigid frame bridges with high-pier and long-span, the aerodynamic interference effects on aerostatic coefficients of main beam in the parallel long-span continuous rigid frame bridges were investigated in details by means of wind tunnel test. The space between the two main beams and wind attack angles were changed during the wind tunnel test to study the effects on aerodynamic interferences of aerostatic coefficients of main beam. The test got aerostatic coefficients of 10 conditions. The research results have shown that the aerodynamic interference effects on aerostatic coefficients of main beam in parallel bridges can not be ignored. The aerodynamic interference effects on parallel bridge main beam is shown mainly as follows: The drag coefficient of main beam downstream dropped and the drag coefficient of main beam upstream changed but not change significantly. There are also the aerodynamic interference effects of lateral force coefficient and torque coefficient between the main beams upstream and downstream. The effects upstream are smaller and the effects downstream are larger.

Hypersonic flows involving two or more bodies travelling in close proximity to one another are encountered in several important situations. The present work seeks to explore one aspect of the resulting flow problem by investigating the forces experienced by a secondary body when it is within the domain of influence of a primary body travelling at hypersonic speeds.An analytical methodology based on the blast wave analogy is developed and used to predict the secondary force coefficients for simple geometries in both two and three dimensions. When the secondary body is entirely inside the primary shocked region, the nature of the lateral force coefficient is found to depend strongly on the relative size of the two bodies. For two spheres, the methodology predicts that the secondary body will experience an exclusively attractive lateral force if the secondary diameter is larger than one-sixth of the primary diameter. The analytical results are compared with those from numerical simulations and reasonable agreement is observed if an appropriate normalization for the relative lateral displacement of the two bodies is used.Results from a series of experiments in the T5 hypervelocity shock tunnel are also presented and compared with perfect-gas numerical simulations, with good agreement. A new force-measurement technique for short-duration hypersonic facilities, enabling the experimental simulation of the proximal bodies problem, is described. This technique provides two independent means of measurement, and the agreement observed between the two gives a further degree of confidence in the results obtained.

Modern articulated trucks have very large trailers, up to 11 m long. When they empty their load, the body may be inclined at up to 40° this causes a high obstruction to sideways winds, which may cause the vehicle to roll over. The lateral force and the roll-over moment were measured in wind tunnel tests of a 1/60 scale model of a typical truck with the body at different tipping angles, ψ, and the wind in different directions, α. The side force coefficient was found to be approximately 1.5, almost independent of ψ, α up to 15° and Reynolds number up to 340000. The resultant of the wind force was found to act at almost the same height above the ground as the centroid of the lateral area for all values of ψ.
