In this study, an experimental system is developed to simulate the running conditions of a studless tire, and the microscopic liquid film flow generated between the rubber surface and glass is observed to evaluate the liquid thickness distribution. Liquid film removal by micropores on foamed rubber samples is investigated by visualizing the liquid thickness in the micropores.

Purpose: Using a magnetic resonance (MR) image generation technique with deep learning, we elucidated whether changing the training data patterns affected image generation accuracy.
Methods: The pix2pix training model generated T1-weighted images from T2-weighted images or FLAIR images. Head MR images obtained at our hospital were used in this study.
