Influence of Hydrodynamic Fluid Pressure and Shoe Tread Depth on Available Coefficient of Friction

ASME/STLE 2012 International Joint Tribology Conference, 2012
Slip and fall accidents are a major occupational health concern. Identifying the lubrication mechanisms affecting shoe-floor-contaminant friction under biofidelic (testing conditions that mimic human slipping) conditions is critical to identifying unsafe surfaces and designing a slip-resistant work environment.

Single Vehicle Wet Road Loss of Control; Effects of Tire Tread Depth and Placement

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2002
<div class="htmlview paragraph">When an automobile is driven on wet roads, its tires must remove water from between the tread and road surfaces. It is well known that the ability of a tire to remove water depends heavily on tread depth, water depth and speed, as well as other factors, such as tire load, air pressure and tread design.

A Survey on Tire Tread Depth Calculation Using Mobile Camera

International Scientific Journal of Engineering and Management
ABSTRACT Vehicle safety is highly dependent on tire condition, particularly tire tread depth, which directly affects traction, braking efficiency, and vehicle stability on wet or uneven roads. Worn-out tire treads increase the risk of skidding and accidents, making regular tire inspection essential. Traditional tread measurement methods such as manual

Comparison of Laboratory and On-Long Road Truck Tire Rolling Resistance for Various Tire Tread Depths

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1988
<div class="htmlview paragraph">A study was undertaken to compare values of Truck Tire Rolling Resistance obtained under laboratory conditions to those obtained over the road. Four sets of tires of three tread depths were individually tested at the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company on Rolling Resistance Machine #72, and at the Calspan Advanced ...

Tire Rolling Radius Evolution with Tread Depth and the Implications for Tire Replacement on All-Wheel Drive Vehicles

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2020
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">All-wheel drive (AWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles are becoming more prevalent in the market today. However, it is not well understood what the correct practice is when only one tire on the vehicle needs to be replaced.

An Objective Analysis of the Effect of Tire Tread Depth on Crash Causation and Wet Road Vehicle Dynamics

SAE International Journal of Passenger Cars - Mechanical Systems, 2013
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper explores tire placement with given tread depths on vehicles from two distinct perspectives. The first area explored is an analysis of crash data recently reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Friction, Tread Depth and Water; Laboratory Investigations of Passenger Car Tire Cornering Performance under Minimally-Wet Conditions

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2013
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The passenger car tire testing reported herein extends earlier published research. Results under minimally-wet conditions displayed behavior similar to those previous tests conducted at greater water depths, except for the lowest water depth considered (0.25 mm or 0.01 inches ...

An adaptive tire tread depth measurement method based on binocular line-laser

Measurement Science and Technology
Abstract In this paper, an adaptive method for tire tread depth measurement based on binocular line laser is proposed and implemented. Important challenges such as the interference of wear indicators, the interference of lateral tread grooves, and the adaptability to tires with different specifications are addressed.

The Effect of Tire Tread Depth on Antilock-Brake System (ABS) Decelerations on Dry and Wet Asphalt and Concrete Road Surfaces

SAE Technical Paper Series
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The effect of tire tread depth on the deceleration performance of anti-lock brake systems (ABS) in newer vehicles is not well studied. A single sport-utility vehicle (SUV) was used to perform a series of 216 ABS-engaged braking tests on dry and wet asphalt and concrete surfaces ...
