ADAMS/Tire(tm), a tire/roadway interaction module, extends the standard tire model in ADAMS/Solver(tm) with more sophisticated calculations for lateral force, self-aligning torque, and forces due to obstacles such as potholes. ADAMS/Tire(tm) can be used with ADAMS(R) for: vehicle stability studies; calculation of yaw, pitch, and roll; generation of force and acceleration data for stress and fatigue studies; computation of road load histories; and calculation of reactive forces due to braking and drive torques. The product provides simple input format, the ability to create customized libraries of tire properties and road profiles, and architecture for altering calculation parameters.
