Abstract

Optimizing performance, durability, and comfort poses considerable issues in the design and analysis of spoke structures for both airless and traditional tires. Although airless tires have benefits like resilience to punctures and less need for maintenance, the optimal design and arrangement of the spoke structure are still undetermined. This research seeks to rectify the lack of thorough studies that compare the performance of airless tires with various spoke systems to that of regular pneumatic tires. The project aims to develop several spoke configurations for airless tires, examine their non-linear characteristics, and compare them to traditional tires. The scope of the project includes the specification of two designs for spoke structures, the creation of two airless tires and one conventional tire using SolidWorks software, the selection of appropriate materials and their qualities, and the execution of a comparative study using SimSolid software. The methodology uses sophisticated mathematical methods, such as finite element analysis and simulation techniques, to forecast the mechanical characteristics of spoke structures. The objective of the study is to determine the benefits and obstacles associated with airless tires in comparison to traditional ones. The conclusion will offer valuable insights on the optimal spoke structure design for airless tires, taking into account factors such as performance, cost-effectiveness, and practicality. This research enhances the comprehension and enhancement of airless tire design, offering vital insights for future progress in tire technology.
