Evaluating the impact of tyre stiffness on dynamic load in three-wheel vehicles

One important element that significantly contributes to the nation’s growth is transportation. Heavy-duty vehicles, typically three-axle trucks, are vital for transporting raw materials, supplies, and commodities from one location to another, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the transportation process. Three-axle trucks facilitate the movement of goods through the market, connecting various regions of the country and promoting trade and commerce. This, in turn, strengthens the economy by enabling the seamless flow of materials and commodities, aiding in the equitable development of all areas within the nation, and bridging the gap between urban and rural regions. This study investigates the impact of tyre stiffness on dynamic load fluctuations in three-wheeled vehicle configurations under varying driving conditions. To evaluate how changes in tyre stiffness influence the vertical load distribution on each wheel, a dynamic simulation model has been developed.
