Vibration analysis of a tyre model using the wave finite element method
Vibration analysis of a tyre model using the wave finite element method
The vibration of a tyre is predicted using the wave finite element (WFE) method. The material
properties are considered to be frequency dependent. The WFE method starts from a
conventional finite element (FE) model of only a short section of a structure, which is uniform in
one direction. Existing element libraries can be fully utilised and the size of the FE model can be
very small. Free wave propagation characteristics are extracted from the dynamic stiffness
matrix of the FE model. The forced response is calculated using the wave approach. An
approach for determining the amplitudes of the directly excited wave is proposed to reduce
numerical difficulties. The method is applied to a tyre FE model formed using ANSYS. The
material properties of rubber are considered to be frequency dependent. The free wave
propagation is shown including nearfield waves. The predicted forced response is compared
with experimental data. Good agreement can be seen on the whole.

Abstract
The vibration of a tyre is predicted using the wave finite element (WFE) method. The material
properties are considered to be frequency dependent. The WFE method starts from a
conventional finite element (FE) model of only a short section of a structure, which is uniform in
one direction. Existing element libraries can be fully utilised and the size of the FE model can be
very small. Free wave propagation characteristics are extracted from the dynamic stiffness
matrix of the FE model. The forced response is calculated using the wave approach. An
approach for determining the amplitudes of the directly excited wave is proposed to reduce
numerical difficulties. The method is applied to a tyre FE model formed using ANSYS. The
material properties of rubber are considered to be frequency dependent. The free wave
propagation is shown including nearfield waves. The predicted forced response is compared
with experimental data. Good agreement can be seen on the whole.
