Is it possible to use Ftire durcing suspension analysis in adams car ?

I want to use Ftire during suspension analysis. Even if we can change Tire Model to Property File, but not "real Ftire", only the vertical stffness effect from ftire property file was considered.

So, is there a way to realize "Ftire in suspension analysis in adams car"?

Hi,

Out of curiosity. In what way do you think having a tire property file on the testrig will be better than defining the properties indicated in the GUI? In other words what type of test are you going to run that you require the tyre property file?

Thanks,

Alexis

Hi . Alexis,

We need get the tire deformation during movement to build wheel envelope. Normally, wheel envelope based on rigid tire like adams .wev

Ftire can save wheel envelope as .shl after simulation directly, moreover its very important that it can represent tire deformation during movement, so that we dont need to spend time to build coarse FE in other software anymore.

Hi Xu,

The way I see it you may need to modify the testrig to accept actual FTire models or submit an enhancement request ticket. If you have sufficient knowledge the first option may be the fastest.

Xu,

I admit I should know for sure but I don't.. anyway, I *think* Adams is calling FTire during steady-state suspension analysis only in *statics* mode. *If* so (MSC support will know more): FTire statics mode is highly simplified and does *not* provide wheel envelope etc. You'll need to run an equivalent Adams time domain simulation, or use cosin/tools.
