Measurement and Modeling of a Cargo Bicycle Tire for Vehicle Dynamics Simulation
Source abstract
Abstract
In the field of inner-city cargo transportation, solutions such as electrified cargo trailers are increasingly being used. To provide an intelligent drivetrain control system that improves driving dynamics and enables safety, it is necessary to know the characteristics of the trailer system. This includes the behavior of the tires. Existing investigations of bicycle tires focus on camber-angle-dependent models. However, in most trailers, a rigid mounting of the tires without camber is used. For this reason, a bicycle tire model is created within the scope of this study using real measurement data that represent a 20 in tire with typical wheel loads and without camber. The measurements were collected with the mobile tire measurement laboratory of the Bern University of Applied Sciences on an asphalt test site under real conditions. Crosstalk occurring in the measurement hub during the data collection was successfully corrected using a matrix method. With help of the so-called Magic Formula, a tire model was created that can be used for driving dynamics simulations and controller design.
