Abstract The continuum modeling of tire/road vibro-contact dynamics is developed in this paper by assuming continuum relationship between the contact force and the deformation. An important aspect of this model is that the damping depends on the indentation. In the continuum approach, no difference is made between impact and contact, and the friction law can be other than the Coulomb’s law. Since the road is rocky, a bristle model was chosen to take into account the effect of the road irregularities. The identification of the contact domain is performed by checking the minimum distance between bodies. More >
