tireModel.builtin

Class: tireModel

Create new tire model object from built-in tire model

Since R2023b

Syntax

obj = tireModel.builtin(modelName, modelType)
obj = tireModel.builtin(modelName, modelType, modified_dugoff=true)

Description

This method requires Extended Tire Features for Vehicle Dynamics Blockset.

obj = tireModel.builtin(modelName, modelType) creates a new tire model object for a built-in tire model specified by modelName using the tire model type specified by modelType.

obj = tireModel.builtin(modelName, modelType, modified_dugoff=true) creates a new tire model object for the extended slip Dugoff tire model when you specify the name-value argument modified_dugoff as true and the modelType is specified as "Dugoff".

Note

If you do not specify modelType as "Dugoff", the software ignores the modified_dugoff argument.

  • "Dugoff"

  • "Fiala"

Example: m = tireModel.builtin("Light passenger car 205/60R15", "Fiala")

Option to create the extended slip Dugoff tire model, specified as true or false.

Example: m = tireModel.builtin("Light passenger car 205/60R15", "Dugoff", modified_dugoff=true)
