Abstract: A tire model can be used to predict vehicle dynamics behaviour, such as braking or turning. This paper proposes a method for testing/modelling a tire with a roller brake tester. It requires two speed sensors installed on the roller and idler. That additional sensors are used to estimate roller brake tester inertia and measure tire slip during testing. After involving inertia in the calculation, the brake tester measurement becomes accurate in all points from zero until maximum slip. These results are better than the existing roller brake tester which is only accurate when the steady state condition of the roller is achieved. The modified brake tester and tire testing were modelled and simulated using MATLAB® Simulink. Furthermore, the influence of the brake tester arrangement on measurement characteristics has been identified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
