An improved method of using equilibrium profile to design radial tires
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2015 Tire performances are strongly influenced by cross section profile, and equilibrium profile has been a focus of radial tire researches, however, how to use the profiles to design radial tires has been reported rarely due to reasons of secrecy. This paper
