Abstract :Objective: The objective of this study was to develop the load-carrying capacity models of tractor tires on the rigid surface for both, radial and bias tires. Material and Methods: In order to develop functions, two tire constructional variables (section width and overall diameter), inflation pressure, and forward speed for the load-carrying capacity model were considered. The models developed in the literature for the load-carrying capacity of tires on rigid and soil surfaces were built on some limited data and as a result of this, the predominant variable and contribution of other variables still remain unknown. This study has the widest range of tractor tire sizes (width and diameter). The load-carrying capacity models developed in this study were verified with the theoretical models and experimental measurement values in the literature. Results: As a result of the study, it was found that the appropriate mathematical models were in non-linear (power) form and the coefficient of determination of the models was greater than 0.95. Conclusion: The models were verified against published data in the literature and found that the predictions from the models are in good agreement with the measured values.Keywords : Diyagonal lastikler, şişirme basıncı, modelleme, model seçimi, radyal lastikler, lastik genişliği
