Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An all terrain vehicle designed and developed at North Carolina State University in 1980 was modified to incorporate a central tire inflation system (CTIS) composed of an air compressor, solenoid valves and controls to provide the proper air inflation pressure to the powered wheels. A radar unit for ground speed/slip measurements was employed to detect the vehicle mobility. The unit's slip data were erratic and could not be recommended for automatic control of the tire inflation pressure. Conversely, the radar ground speed outputs were within + or - 2% of the actual measured speeds and will be used in future circuitry control of the CTIS. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since there are numerous ways of increasing a wheeled vehicles overall mobility and effectiveness it then becomes a choice of which mobility features to incorporate into a vehicle design and how effective each of these features are from a performance and a cost effectiveness standpoint. One of the most effective and well proven systems that has been adapted to wheeled tactical vehicles to improve the overall vehicle mobility is CTIS. In general these systems, feature relatively simple designs, are a highly effective and convenient method of enhancing vehicle mobility and are relatively simple to operate. A CTIS can be defined as, A system incorporated in a wheeled vehicle which permits the vehicle tire pressures to be regulated by the vehicle driver/crew member from within the vehicle cab while on the move. If the vehicle tires are deflated from 50 psi to 15 psi the tire footprints will increase substantially. Whenever the area of the footprint is increased the ground pressure which that vehicle experiences is reduced. Assuming that the soil strength conditions are identical, the tractive effort and overall mobility for a vehicle will increase at the lower pressure level, hence allowing this vehicle to accomplish a high level of mobility performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operation Bigfoot was initiated by the United States Deaprtment of Agriculture (USDA) forest Service in 1988 to implement central tire inflation (CTI) to reduce the impact of commodity production such as timber and minerals on the forest environment. Cooperative work with other Federal agencies, industry and standards associations, manufacturers, and insurance industry representatives has helped make CTI technology viable and safe for commercial use. Accomplishments include validation of truck and road benefits, tire standards for low inflation pressures, and commercial availability of CTI equipment for trucks and trucks and trailer combinations over 24,000 pounds GVW (gross vehicle weight). Structures tests and demonstration projects indicate the benefits of using lowered tire pressures are real and that they can be implemented to reduce impacts on forest ecosystems. Verified benefits include: 20-30 percent reduction in required road aggregate thickness with CTI; 50-90 percent reduction in road surface maintenance with CTI; 10-85 percent reduction in road related sediment with CTI; Reduced driver injury and fatigue; Reduced vehicle operation and maintenance costs. Additional tests are planned to evaluate the effects of lowered tire pressure on pavement damage during thaw weakened periods, reduction in sediment due to reduced maintenance blading, and measured reduced impacts to the trucks. These and other planned studies will help implement CTI technology. For the covering abstract of this conference, see IRRD number 863140.
