Using an MF6.2 Model?

O Learned Denizens,
 
I have, through a confluence of mellifluous events, acquired an MF6.2 model of a tyre I am interested in understanding on our vehicle. Hurray!
 
However, I expected the default interface built into ADAMS to be able to run the tyre - but it baulks and says it "can't find 'TNO_DelftTyre_Adams_interface::TYR815'". Boo!
 
The MF interface is clearly present and correct because it will run MF6.0 tyres I also have to hand. Hurray!
 
I'm obviously missing something but it's unclear to me just what...
 
Any clues?
 
Thanks in advance!

  • As usual the usual suspects have a solution, too.
    In this case because we also have MF6.2 from TASS/Siemens and ran into the same problems ....
     
    The problem is that you need to additionally install some dll/so files that you have to download from Siemens.
    If you have a Windows local installation, they offer an installer that should do the job. (which you did)
     
    In our case we have Linux & a Server/Client thing for Win10 plus no admin privileges. That's why we got their installation as a zipped file and then I linked / copied the necessary files into our MDI_USER_PLUGIN_DIR.
    Search for things like
    mfswift_tire_interface.dll
     Simcenter_Tire_Adams_Interface.dll
    TNO_DelftTyre_Adams_interface.dll
     tno_delfttyre.dll
     tno_userroad.dll
     
    On Linux it's
    libmfswift_tire_interface.so
    libSimcenter_Tire_Adams_Interface.so
     libTNO_DelftTyre_Adams_interface.so
      libTNO_DelftTyre.so
     
    If you don't have set MDI_USER_PLUGIN_DIR you can also copy those to <topdir>/win64
    (Which is what you did)
     
    BTW: As far as I remember the TNO_DelftTyre_Adams_interface is the old & outdated version.
    Changing the tir-file to Simcenter_Tire_Adams_Interface::TYR815 should use the latest version.
    (which is what made it work finally)
     
     
    And if there's more questions about MF6.2, how about contacting their support ? ( tire.support.sisw@siemens.com )
