Tire mechanics, multi-physics FEA, and operator-based modeling, with an emphasis on structural stiffness and thermodynamics.
Structural design of OTR and passenger tires under realistic duty cycles: inflation–deflection, rolling resistance, and durability.
A modular FEA framework for large deformation elastomers, contact, and multi-level solvers, built around the Augmented Lagrange method.
An operator-based language for PDE modeling and solver design: restriction, laws, and solvers as a unified structure.
Energy-based models for hysteresis, temperature fields, and entropy generation in rolling tires.
This section will gradually collect formal papers, whitepapers, and technical notes. Files will be grouped by topic with short summaries.
