ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus to design a wheel of a multiple-axle vehicle are disclosed. A disclosed method analyzes fatigue damage values of wheels, each to be installed at a number of axle positions on a vehicle, and includes determining for each wheel a fatigue damage value for each of a plurality of critical locations at the wheel during an installation and determining whether at least a subset of total fatigue damage values at critical locations for each wheel installation exceeds a respective threshold total fatigue damage value.
