The ring model allows for motions in radial and circumferential
directions, which are associated with flexural waves and longitudinal
waves, respectively
The air cavity acts as a fluid loading on the ring structure
Rotation of tire causes frequency split phenomenon
Acoustical wave in tire radial directions exist – “depth modes”
detectable in tire surface vibration
In circular air cavity, phase speed of circumferential acoustical wave
varies with radius due to planar nature of waves
