FEA Analysis of Tyre Tread Under Loading and Unloading Condition

Mayank Kumar Sahu, Vishal Achwal, Suman Sharma

Abstract: This project aims to realize the life cycle and best Tyre tread design. An important aspect is the development of robust Tyre friction model to include Tyre and road interaction. Gripping characteristic of Tyre tread plays a vital role in friction between Tyre and road when loading and unloading is done quickly. Tread should be such that it provides the most grip and have operating constancy on road. This component is for the safety concern of the vehicles. In this project, the Tyre model will be modeled using Creo software. Then, the prepared model is simulated for rubber material and different tread pattern. Tyre model is simulated using the Finite Element Method (FEM). FEA is used to simulate engineering problems. FEM software, ANSYS Static Structural is used for the calculating stress and strain in tread. Static structural determines the displacements, stress, strains and forces in Tyre caused by the loads that do not induce inertia and damping effects. Steady loading and structure’s response are assumed to vary slowly with respect to time. On loading conditions, the load to be assumed is 31 ton and on unloading conditions, load is 10 ton approximately, In Static Position of Vehicle. The simulation result with lower stress and strain values is the point of interest.
