Simulation of a Vehicle Running on to a Curb by Using Tire and Vehicle FE Models
A simplified FE tire model has capability to solve a large deformation of a tire on a vehicle running simulation with acceptable computational time. We tried to simulate a vehicle running on to a curb, one of vehicle strength tests, ...
