TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - A novel sensor design for the tyre load monitoring: overall design and analysis JO - International journal of vehicle design A1 - Kamalzadeh, Amin A1 - Golnaraghi, M.

SP - 203 EP - 223 VL - 56 IS - 1/2/3/4 N2 - The growing demand for safety, comfort, and ride performance in the automotive industry motivates the design of advanced sensory systems. In this work, a sensory system is designed which measures the wheel forces and moments in every direction. The design benefits from a compact configuration by only modifying one part of the vehicle's current wheel assembly. The forces and moments are measured using the deflections of a flexible cylindrical layer embedded in the external hub of the wheel bearing assembly, where all the loads transmit through. Keywords: sensor design; tyre load monitoring; force; torque; load; vehicle tyres; wheels; vehicle dynamics; vehicle control; wheel forces; wheel assembly; deflection; wheel bearing assembly.
