Abstract

It is well known that the acoustic cavity inside the tire-wheel assembly contributes to vehicle interior noise and ride comfort. In this paper, we performed acoustic and structural modal testings by varying the temperature ranging from $20^{\circ}\;to\;45^{\circ}C$ to investigate the effects of temperature on acoustic cavity resonance and structural vibration characteristics for unloaded and loaded tires. The testing has given us some findings, which are reported in this paper.
