Highlights Rubber compound affects DPC upto 50% between best and worst tire on ice. Rubber compound effect is more prominent in the low slip region. Magic Formula Tire Model was parameterized using a genetic algorithm. Ambient temperature affects tire stiffness and peak value factor. Tire aging affects stiffness factor and angle at the origin.

    Abstract This paper presents an indoor experimental study focused on analyzing the effect of various tread rubber compounds on the tire performance on ice. A set of sixteen tires (two per rubber compound) with identical dimensions, construction, and tread pattern, but of different tread rubber compounds, was investigated using the Terramechanics Rig which measures all forces and moments acting on a tire that is rolling (free or with slip) on ice. All operational parameters (normal load, inflation pressure, ice static coefficient of friction, ice temperature) were kept constant. Testing the tires under free rolling provided insights into the effect of the tread rubber compound on the resistive forces. The investigation led to conclusive evidence that the tread rubber compound affects drawbar pull coefficient significantly (double for best than for the worst tire). It was found that the effect of the tread rubber compound in the lower slip region is most prominent, which is also where vehicles operate most of the time. The decrease in the stiffness is generally considered a positive sign for improvement in available friction but this cannot be a generalized conclusion when analyzing the tire as a whole, which is one of the major findings of this study.
