FTire/fit

Standalone product designed for identification and optimization of FTire data on basis of static and steady-state measurements, footprint geometry, cleat tests and virtual measurements such as finite-element-analysis (FEA) results.

Key features

• Convenient tool for processing, identification, and validation of geometrical, static, steady-state, handling, dynamic, and modal data
• Wide support for input data formats like TYDEX data files, ASCII tables, bitmaps, graphs, MF tire model data, etc.
• Tuning of numerical properties
• Automatic measurement data format recognition and conversion
• Automated footprint comparison
• Automated cross-section geometry import
• Automated stiffness determination (radial, longitudinal, lateral, torsion, cornering stiffness, pneumatic trail, and slip stiffness)
• Automated static and steady-state validation by time domain simulation
• Dynamic identification using least squares fits of cleat tests in time and/or frequency domain
• Result file analysis
• Automated generation of fitting reports
• Fully automatic HTML/PDF-based report creator, including generation and illustration of steady-state and handling simulation results

Benefits at a glance

• FTire/fit is the powerful parameter identification and validation toolbox for FTire
• Much more than just a mathematical parameter fitting procedure
