Abstract
In a method for alerting to the wear of a tyre that includes a tread strip equipped with at least one circumferential groove,
- the running noise made by the tyre running along a ground is measured,
- from the measured running noise, a noise emitted in a predetermined range of frequencies close to a predetermined resonant frequency of a portion of the circumferential groove during running is isolated,
- the amplitude of the isolated noise is measured, and
- the measured amplitude is compared against a predetermined alert threshold.

9. A method for alerting to wear of a tyre that includes a tread strip equipped with at least one circumferential groove, the method comprising steps of:
-
measuring a running noise made by the tyre running along a ground; from the measured running noise, isolating a noise emitted in a predetermined range of frequencies close to a predetermined resonant frequency of a portion of the circumferential groove during running; measuring an amplitude of the isolated noise; and comparing the measured amplitude against a predetermined alert threshold. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
