Embedded Flexible Force Sensor for In-Situ Tire–Road Interaction Measurements

Abstract:

 In-situ sensing the tire–road interactions such as local contact friction force distributions provides crucial information for building accurate friction force models for vehicle safety control. In this paper, we report the development of an embedded, flexible local force sensor for measuring the tire local friction forces and their distributions. A new pressure sensitive, electric conductive rubber (PSECR) sensor is used and embedded inside the tire rubber layer to extract the multidimensional local friction forces on the tire contact patch.
