Abstract
In pavement design, vehicle load is typically simplified as vertical circular uniform loading. Due to the vehicle dynamic effect and deformation of a tire, non-uniform three-dimensional contact stresses are produced at the contact interface between the tire and pavement under different driving modes. For this paper, an 11R22.5 truck radial tire was selected. Considering the geometric nonlinearity and large deformation of the tire and nonlinear characteristics of tire-pavement contact, the Neo-Hookean and Rebar models are used to simulate the hyperelastic rubber material and rubber-cord composite material, respectively. The three-dimensional contact stress distribution under static, free rolling, acceleration, braking, and cornering modes was simulated and analyzed. The results show that inflation pressure, axle load, and friction coefficient of the tire significantly affect the three-dimensional contact stress distribution. Further, three-dimensional stresses are non-uniformly distributed, rather than in the traditional simplified circular uniform load. The three-dimensional stress distribution of tire-pavement in different driving modes is also significantly different. The vertical and lateral stresses in the state of cornering are the largest, the longitudinal stress in the state of braking is the largest as well. The research results provide reference for future pavement design and pavement damage analysis.
