CenTiRe Supporting the 32nd Annual Tire Society Conference with Student Presentations
The Center for Tire Research (CenTiRe) is excited to support the upcoming Tire Society conference event. The Tire Society Conference has always been a pivotal platform for experts, scholars, and professionals to share the latest insights and advancements in tire technology. With its dedication to bridging the gap between academia and industry, the conference has now partnered with CenTiRe to provide an exceptional opportunity for student researchers to shine.
Recognizing the importance of nurturing emerging talent, CenTiRe's involvement in the Tire Society Conference underscores their commitment to fostering the next generation of tire innovators. By providing a dedicated space for student researchers to present their work, CenTiRe aims to catalyze meaningful conversations and collaborations among industry leaders, established academics, and budding researchers.
The inclusion of student researcher presentations promises a diverse range of topics and fresh perspectives on tire technology. From innovative materials and sustainable manufacturing processes to enhanced tire performance and safety measures, these young researchers are poised to unveil insights that could shape the tire industry's future.
The Tire Society Conference is scheduled to take place from September 12-13, 2023 and hosted on the University of Akron campus. Be prepared for an enriching experience that brings together the tire industry's past, present, and future.
As we stand at the intersection of tradition and innovation, the collaboration between CenTiRe and the Tire Society Conference sets the stage for a transformative chapter in tire technology. With the spotlight on student researchers, we anticipate breakthroughs that will reshape the way we think about tires and pave the road for a safer, greener, and more efficient future.

CenTiRe: 2022 Tire Society Conference Articles
2 of our CenTiRe funded projects are planned to be presented at the 2022 Tire Society Conference next month. The projects are:
- TEST-2021-C13-3: Automated Vibration Mode Shape Characterization of Radial Tire using Zernike Moments and Flattening, Junhyeon Seo Virginia Polytechnic Institute
- SUST-2020-D5-8: Enhanced Crystallinity of Recycled PET Materials, Gavan Lienhart University of Akron
Both of these projects' draft presentations have been previously submitted for IAB content review and we fully expect to gain approval prior to the conference.
Like CenTiRe, the Tire Society is recognized as a leading membership organization for tire science and research, engineering, technology and innovation. CenTiRe is proud to partner with the Tire Society in furthering tire innovation, and we encourage our industry members to participate in the 2022 Tire Society conference, hosted by the University of Akron, on September 12 & 13.
