Technical developments - Tires (Tyres) & Standards

 

Technical developments do not occur in a vacuum; they are frequently brought about by new industry standards or legislation. This report examines the most important legislation (or potential legislation) that is influencing the tire (tyre) industry and then looks at the way the industry has reacted with specific design improvements.

 

After looking at the design process and how that has changed, the report discusses the recent and future improvements in particular tires:

  • Passenger car tires (tyres)
  • High performance tires (tyres)
  • Winter tires (tyres)
  • Runflat tires (tyres)
  • Fashion items
  • Truck tires (tyres)
  • Aircraft and OTR tires (tyres)

 

It then looks at the various technologies that are coming into use and the possible combination of these technologies to make “the intelligent tire.”

  • Radio frequency identification (RFID)
  • Tire (tyre) pressure monitoring systems (TPMS)
  • New tire/wheel designs
  • Intelligent tires (tyres)
  • Systems integration
  • Future research

This report is in preparation but the publication date is not yet decided. If you are interested in this subject please e-mail Neil Mullineux at: editor@worldtirereport.com 

 

 

An Apology
Half the world uses the word "tire" whilst the other half uses "tyre". Unfortunately search engines don't realise that they mean the same. In order to be recognised by the search machines we have had to resort to the irritating strategy of duplicating the two words. Sorry!
