Skid resistance is known to be affected by environmental conditions such as ambient temperature and pavement temperature. Finite element (FE) modeling has been an effective and efficient way to study the effects of temperature on skid resistance. However, existing FE models either are not able to incorporate the pavement surface characteristics or only perform heat transfer analysis per the two-dimensional (2-D) cross-section of the tire, which could lead to inaccurate predictions of skid resistance. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to develop a three-dimensional, coupled thermomechanical tire–pavement interaction model to investigate the variations in skid resistance as a function of ambient temperature and pavement temperature. The advantages and capability of the proposed model were highlighted by comparing the tire temperature profiles predicted by the proposed model and by the existing 2-D staggered model. Parametric studies of various factors that affect skid resistance were carried out. On the basis of the output results, a relationship between skid resistance and different parameters is proposed.

已知防滑性能受诸如环境温度和路面温度之类的环境条件的影响。有限元（FE）建模一直是研究温度对防滑性能影响的有效途径。但是，现有的有限元模型要么无法结合路面的表面特性，要么仅对轮胎的二维（2-D）横截面进行传热分析，这可能导致防滑性能的预测不准确。因此，当前研究的目的是开发一个三维耦合的热机械轮胎-路面相互作用模型，以研究防滑阻力随环境温度和路面温度的变化。通过比较建议模型和现有二维交错模型预测的轮胎温度曲线，突出了建议模型的优势和功能。对影响防滑性能的各种因素进行了参数研究。根据输出结果，提出了防滑性能与不同参数之间的关系。
