Abstract

A method of calculating forces applied at an interface between a revolving element and a support on which the element revolves using a set of fixed sensors capable of delivering three independent signals representative of forces being applied on a fixed race of a bearing. The method is an iterative processing procedure and a calibration procedure, which is carried out before a first iteration of the processing procedure. The invention also applies such a method to the case of a tyre running on a road.
