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.

Input Arguments

modelName — Tire model name

"Light passenger car 205/60R15" | "Mid-size passenger car 235/45R18" | "Performance car 225/40R19" | "SUV 265/50R20" | "Light truck 275/65R18" | "Commercial truck 295/75R22.5"

Tire model name, specified as one of these values:

• "Light passenger car 205/60R15"

• "Mid-size passenger car 235/45R18"

• "Performance car 225/40R19"

• "SUV 265/50R20"

• "Light truck 275/65R18"

• "Commercial truck 295/75R22.5"

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

Data Types: string

modelType — Tire model type

"MF62" (default) | "MF" | "Dugoff" | "Fiala"

Tire model type, specified as one of these values:

• "MF62"

• "MF"

• "Dugoff"

• "Fiala"

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

modified_dugoff — Option to create extended slip Dugoff tire model

true (default) | false

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)

Data Types: logical

Output Arguments

obj — Tire model

tireModel object

Tire model, specified as a tireModel object. Parameter values of built-in tire models are hidden and display as zeroes.

Note

Built-in tire models cannot be exported, and modifications to parameter values of properties not within the tireModel superclass are ignored.

Version History

Introduced in R2023b

R2024a: New input argument

Starting in R2024a, use the new input argument modelType to specify the tire model type.

R2024a: New name-value argument

Starting in R2024a, use the name-value argument modified_dugoff to create the extended slip Dugoff tire model when you Dugoff as the tire model type.
