A real, functioning copy of one main landing gear wheel is used to show the landing impact of an aircraft. By minimizing abrasive sliding between aircraft tires and runway surfaces right after touchdown, this study seeks to identify possible tire-life improvements. An experimental investigation of size 22 X 5.5, type VII airplane tyres was conducted to evaluate the wear and related properties of temperature and friction caused while braking. One way to evaluate the tire's performance on surfaces with uniform slip ratios, including asphalt, concrete, and slurry seal, was to gear it up to the driving wheel of a ground vehicle. The range of slip ratios often attributed to an airplane's braking system was covered by the data gathered during dry runway operations. Our results show that cumulative tire wear is affected by runway surface features, increases with increasing slip ratio, and changes linearly with miles. The differing wear rates associated with the various surfaces may be used to rank runways based on tire wear.
