Aerodymamic Simulation of a Standalone Rotating Tread Tire
International Journal of Automotive Engineering, 2017 The aerodynamics of a rotating tire can contribute up to a third of the overall aerodynamic force on the vehicle. The flow around a rotating tire is very complex and is often affected by smallest tire features. Accurate prediction of vehicle aerodynamics

An Innovative Methodology to Take into Account Traffic Information on WLTP Cycle for Hybrid Vehicles
Energies, 2021 The most efficient energy management strategies for hybrid vehicles are the “Optimization-Based Strategies”. These strategies require a preliminary knowledge of the driving cycle, which is not easy to predict.

A drag coefficient for application to the WLTP driving cycle [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part D: Journal of Automobile Engineering, 2017 The aerodynamic drag characteristics of a passenger car have, typically, been defined by a single parameter: the drag coefficient at a yaw angle of 0°. Although this has been acceptable in the past, it does not provide an accurate measure of the effect of aerodynamic drag on fuel consumption because the important influence of the wind has been ...
