Tool enables accurate vehicle system models

The MapleSim Tire Component Library is an add-on component library for the MapleSim physical modeling and simulation product. It lets engineers extend their multidomain MapleSim vehicle models with industry-standard tire force model components. In addition, linear and user-defined tire models are available to provide flexibility for investigation and analysis.

The tool features kinematic quantities, such as slip angle, longitudinal slip, and inclination angle that are derived automatically and available to the user. Engineers can control how the tire slip and rolling radius are calculated, and include tire transients through differential equations involving relaxation lengths. It offers support for the following industry-standard tire models: Fiala, Calspan, and Pacejka 2002. ($2,995 — available now.)
