THE VERTICAL STIFFNESS OF E-SCOOTER TIRES

Latin American Applied Research - An international journal
E-scooter sharing systems have a great international expansion. There is no publication that refers to the wheels used in e-scooters. In this work, these stiffness curves for wheels currently used in e-scooters were obtained experimentally. Average stiffness values from 0.9 E5 N/m to 3.6 E5 N/m has been obtained.
