<p>Systems and methods for improving the uniformity of a tire by separating uniformity contributions associated discrete effects, such as effects resulting from product joints, from continuous effects are provided. For instance, uniformity contributions associated with the product joints are determined by analyzing a uniformity waveform to process the uniformity waveform into one or more continuous components and at least one joint component. Knowledge of the uniformity contributions associated with product joints in the tire can be used, for instance, to make structural improvements in the manufacture of the tire, to actively manage the joint-making process, and to perform dynamic correction of joint effects.</p> |
