Abstract :In this study, the effect of tire inflation pressure on the vehicle during braking was investigated experimentally. The experimental study was carried out in the Brake-Suspension Test Device designed as a half-vehicle model, which enables vehicle brake tests to be performed in the laboratory. During the tests, a total of nine different tire inflation pressures from 26 psi to 40 psi standard value were taken into consideration. As a result of the experiments carried out separately for each tire inflation pressure, a curve characterizing the effect of different pressure values on the pitching force was obtained. Based on the experimental results, dif-ferent mathematical models suitable for the curve obtained are derived by non-linear curve fitting. For the nonlinear curve fitting process, a hybrid iterative re-gression algorithm obtained by combining classical curve fitting algorithm with Newton-Raphson iteration method was used. It was observed that the correlation coefficients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(R2); of the mathematical models obtained provided sufficient sensi-tivity to express the problem under consideration.
