abstract={Sudden tire failure (a blowout) is a major cause of traffic accidents, many of them involving fatalities. If the automobile can quickly identify that a blowout has occurred, the braking system can be programmed to carry out braking and stability control to slow down the vehicle steadily. Hence, timely identification of a blowout or severe leakage is a key enabler of using the braking system to provide control and stability enhancements in the event of a tire failure. This work presents an indirect real-time monitoring strategy that combines analysis of tire vibration with effective radius, to indicate that a blowout has occurred. The calibrating and related test results show that the system can detect tire blow-out timely and accurately.},
