Yokohama Rubber Tire has developed a state monitoring and analysis technology

In the tire-based technology "MultiScale Simulation", the Yokohama Rubber Tire has been successfully developed to enhance the status of material and technical analysis of the tire sound hollow resonance prediction.

Dynamic Analysis of the object to enhance the material contained silica and carbon black (SILICA) in vehicles in the state. Microscopy can be used as a point to resolve the status of tire reinforcement, you can analyze the material to enhance the ratio of the tire structure as well as the characteristics of the impact. In this way, you can control the dynamic high-precision impedance and performance characteristics, such as wet performance opposite tire performance.

The technology is related to Japan's Tohoku University Graduate School of Engineering Research Assistant - Temple Tianxian Jiro common use of non-linear analysis of homogeneous development. As the developed significantly reduce the computing time, the use of generic non-linear finite element analysis software for new technologies, so that the mixture of materials in-house forecast of the state possible.

Resonance is the empty vehicles on the road bumps in the road or road noise when the joints. Prior to this calculation can not be closed to traffic in the state of the air inside the tire change, and the rest can only be carried out under the calculation. Traveling in the state, and the speed of moving in different directions, leading to the resonance frequency also varied, and the new operation will be realized in such a state of the testing.

The company said that currently discussing the use of new technology tires. There may be achieved through the tire itself mute the effect, there may be additional Sumitomo Rubber production is equivalent to the special sound-absorbing material like cotton.
