Authors Abstract
Content
The integration of IDIADA Spain virtual Proving Ground (ISVPG) within ADAMS/Car offers a new virtual scenario to carry out detailed analysis of durability as well as Comfort & Ride. Moreover, these high resolution roads (modeled as OpenCRG road format) support model development activities through better correlation with experimental tests. This approach helps to reduce the number of real tests and to shorten development process times. At the same time, this data would be prepared for performance testing to support driving simulator and active system development.
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the benefits to use FTire model for Ride and Comfort applications and the use of flexible bodies for better predictions. The availability of this information will depend on the status of the project and the level of maturity of the simulation input data. As a result, different levels of accuracy will be reached according to the existing input data.
