The Tire Society.Papers are solicited for the 26th Annual Conference of The Tire Society The Tire Society is a professional body, specifically an engineering society, whose mission is to increase and disseminate knowledge as it pertains to the science and technology of tires. It hosts a two-day Meeting and Conference every year. , to be held September 25-26, 2007, in Akron, OH. Technical sessions are planned for the presentation of papers based upon topics related to tire materials, mechanics, processing, manufacturing and applications. Examples include tire performance/mechanics; properties of tire materials; fracture fracture, breaking of a bone. A simple fracture is one in which there is no contact of the broken bone with the outer air, i.e., the overlying tissues are intact. In a comminuted fracture the bone is splintered. and adhesion adhesion /ad·he·sion/ (ad-he´zhun) 1. the property of remaining in close proximity. 2. the stable joining of parts to one another, which may occur abnormally. 3. in tires; aging and endurance Endurance See also Longevity. Atalanta feminine name denotes power of endurance. [Gk. Myth.: Jobes, 148] Boston marathon famous 26-mile race held annually for long-distance runners. [Am. Pop. Culture: Misc. of tires; tire design and development; rolling resistance/ traction/tread wear; tire performance on non-dry/deformable surfaces; tire influences on ride/harshness; tire noise; advances in tire manufacturing processes; tire testing procedure development and application; predictive models; techniques for model and laboratory test validation See validate. validation - The stage in the software life-cycle at the end of the development process where software is evaluated to ensure that it complies with the requirements. ; tire/vehicle dynamics; tire interaction with electronic stability control; tire requirements for future vehicles (e.g., fuel cell, hybrid); applications of intelligent tire technology; and examples of virtual tire development. Abstracts of papers intended for presentation should be submitted by March 1. Final paper manuscripts are due by August 1.
