  2. Tire balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_balance

    Tires with large unbalances are downgraded or rejected. When tires are fitted to wheels at the point of sale, they are measured again on a balancing machine, and correction weights are applied to counteract their combined unbalance. Tires may be rebalanced if driver perceives excessive vibration. Tire balancing is distinct from wheel alignment.

  3. Lateral force variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_Force_Variation

    Assume a perfectly uniform tire mounted on a perfectly round wheel loaded with a constant force against a perfectly round test wheel. As the wheel turns, it turns the tire, and the tire carcass undergoes repeated deformation and recovery as it enters and exits the contact area. If we measure the lateral force between the tire and the wheel we ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopin_(unit)

    The chopin was a Scottish measurement of volume, usually for fluids, that was in use from at least 1661, though possibly 15th century, until the mid 19th century. [1] The measurement was derived from the French measure chopine an old and widespread unit of liquid capacity, first recorded in the 13th century.

  5. Approximate measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_measures

    It may be that all English-unit derived capacity measurements are derived from one original approximate measurement: the mouthful, consisting of about 1 ⁄ 2 ounce, called the ro in ancient Egypt (their smallest recognized unit of capacity). [4] [5] The mouthful was still a unit of liquid measure during Elizabethan times. [6]

  6. Tire manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_manufacturing

    Tire balance measurement is a test where the tire is automatically placed on wheel halves, rotated at a high speed and measured for imbalance. Large commercial truck/bus tires, as well as some passenger and light truck tires, are inspected by X-ray or magnetic induction based inspection machines, that can penetrate the rubber to analyze the ...

  7. Bicycle tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_tire

    Traditional wired-on rims were straight-sided. Various "hook" (also called "crochet") designs re-emerged in the 1970s to seat the tire bead on the wheel rim and hold the tire in place, [10] [11] resulting in the modern clincher design. This allows higher (80–150 psi or 6–10 bar) air pressures than was possible older wired-on tires.
