I'm using Adams/Adams car on a multibody model of motorcycle which has PAC MC tire model. Can I modify the PAC MC Tire model in order to have a lateral and radial stiffness instead of a vertical stiffness ?

  • Thanks Alex, I have already seen the Adams tire help and seems to be no properties for what I would like to do​. There are some coefficients that act on the vertical force depending on camber angle, but are not what I'm looking for. Moreover, I think I can't use models other than PAC MC because of large camber angles.
    I am not an expert in using Adams, so I am searching for some pratical hints on how I could achieve my target, i.e to insert a radial spring (for radial compression of tire) and an lateral spring (for axial compression of tire), like the model below:
