English

Subject field(s)
  • Aircraft Maneuvers
  • Airport Runways and Areas
OBS

When hard braking is applied for slowing down or stopping after an aborted takeoff or emergency stop situation, the tire is locked up and can’t rotate, causing rapid heat buildup. When the tire begins to smoke, rubber debris build up under the tire. As the skid continues, more and more debris cause a barrier to form against the water, preventing it from escaping past the tire. A seal has now been created... heating the water under the tire to a point where steam exists. The steam is strong enough to support the tire and prevent runway contact. Should the skid continue, the tire enters reverted rubber state as more heat, steam and rubber debris continue the process.

Key term(s)
  • rubber-reverted aquaplanning

French

Domaine(s)
  • Manœuvres d'aéronefs
  • Pistes et aires d'aéroport
CONT

Par ailleurs, il peut y avoir aquaplanage dû à la dévulcanisation du caoutchouc lorsqu'une roue bloquée patine sur une piste très glissante recouverte d'eau ou de neige fondante à une vitesse supérieure à 20 nœuds, alors que la chaleur générée par la friction produit de la vapeur qui commence à dévulcaniser le caoutchouc, sur une partie du pneu, pour le ramener à son état d'avant-vulcanisation.

Subject field(s)
  • Wheels and Tires (Motor Vehicles and Bicycles)
CONT

Solid tires. Introduced in 1881 on the wheels of hansom cabs in London and formerly used for many types of road vehicles, solid tires disappeared from highways, mostly because of legislation that discouraged their use because they were hard on roads. Large sizes were supplanted by large pneumatic tires(truck and bus casings), but small solid tires came to be used extensively on industrial trucks and tractors. Some of these are made with metal base bands to which the rubber(and in some cases, rubbery polyurethane compositions) is firmly attached. These bands are the full width of the base of the tire and are often dovetailed to secure firm anchorage of a hard-rubber constituting the main portion of the tire.

Key term(s)
  • solid-rubber tyre
  • hard rubber tyre

French

Domaine(s)
  • Roues et pneus (Véhicules automobiles et bicyclettes)
CONT

Bandages pleins. Actuellement, ils ne sont plus utilisés que sur des véhicules industriels et des remorques de moyen tonnage, circulant à l'intérieur des entreprises ou sur un chantier, après avoir été conduits sur place par un véhicule routier porteur.

OBS
