Abstract

To develop applicable friction and wear models on tire scale, reliable test data are required. Consequently, friction tests on block level are requested because the distribution of contact pressure as well as slip velocity is nearly homogeneous at the contact surface of the sliding rubber block. However, wear mechanism and energy intensity levels of sliding rubber blocks and rolling rubber wheels or tires differ significantly. Consequently, linking both sliding and rolling frictional abrasion is required; thus, a wear model for rubber material is introduced to consider both deformation slip and sliding. The model input for sliding friction and resulting wear rate is derived from linear friction test experiments using sliding rubber blocks at different loading. A unique and sophisticated re-mesh algorithm ensures proper mesh modification due to abrasion of the structure. A wear energy evolution approach is developed to consider low abrasion with small sliding distances to predict wear at rolling rubber wheels. The simulation framework of abrasion modeling is successfully validated using laboratory abrasion tests.
