Commission of the CSIR's tyre testing and stress-in-motion facilities for improved tyre parameterisation

Author: Robert, Robert J ; De Saxe, Robert J ; Clarke, Anria ; Reinecke, John D ; Fisher, Colin Date: Jul 2019 All of a vehicle’s cornering and acceleration forces are transmitted through its tyres to the road. Tyre testing and parameterisation are therefore fundamental to vehicle dynamics research. Lateral stiffness properties are typically acquired ... Read more
A link of full-scale accelerated pavement testing to long-term pavement performance study in the Western Cape Province of South Africa

Author: Anochie-Boateng, Joseph ; Steyn, WJ vdM ; Fisher, Colin ; Truter, L Date: Sep 2016 The development of a new mechanistic-empirical pavement design method by the South African National Roads Agency Ltd (SANRAL) is at its finalization stage. The new design method, referred to as the South African pavement design method (SAPDM) ... Read more
Mechanistic design optimisation of thin asphalt surfacings using measured non-uniform tyre-road contact and incorporating rectangular contact shapes and layer cross-anisotropy

Author: De Beer, Morris ; Maina, J ; Van Rensburg, Yvette ; Fisher, Colin Date: May 2018 Mechanistic design and construction of flexible pavements with relatively thin (< 50 mm) asphalt road surfacings still remain an art today and are aimed especially towards first-class user experiences. Risks for surfacing failures are difficult ... Read more
Towards Understanding Tyre-Pavement Contact in APT Research on Flexible Pavements

Author: De Beer, Morris ; Fisher, Colin Date: Sep 2016 An important element of Accelerated Pavement Testing (APT) is the selection of appropriate test tyre(s) to be used for APT testing. By far the majority of full scale (or scaled) APT devices uses pneumatic rubber tyres. Tyres differ not only ... Read more
