An observer-based traction control strategy for electric vehicles is proposed in this paper. The proposed strategy considers the combined effects of lateral and longitudinal traction forces, both for acceleration and ...

Extensive field testes were conducted using the UCD single wheel tester employing three large radial ply tractor tires in two different soils, four different soil conditions, two axle load levels, and three levels of tire ...

This work investigates the effects of kinematic conditions, configuration, viscoelasticity, and lubricant viscosity on friction in lubricated compliant contacts. Experimental data were also used to develop a numerical ...

© IMechE 2018.This article addresses the yaw stability of articulated vehicles by assessing the influence of the road-tire friction coefficient on the convergence region of a particular equilibrium condition. In addition, ...

It is analyzed through the concepts of tribology and mechanical contact and damage the suggestion of implementing a backup system for traction and passage of Pipeline Inspection Gauge (Pig) from the inside of pipelines. ...

[EN] The Mw 6.1 2016 Parina earthquake led to extension of the south Peruvian Andes along a normal fault with evidence of Holocene slip. We use interferometric synthetic aperture radar, seismology, and field mapping to ...
