Applications of 2D and 3D tire models for car dynamics, landing of airplanes and off‐road vehicles are presented. For a big agricultural tire on pliable ground a multi‐point measurement device in the inner of the tire was developed, in order to verify computed rolling deformations. The measurement results in a soil channel at TU Munich also were compared with results of flat band testing. Theoretical investigations of tire behaviour were carried out on the basis of thin layered shell theory, together with Russian and Ukrainian scientists. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
