Syntax

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

Description

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Extended Tire Features for Vehicle Dynamics Blockset add-on.

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.

  • "Motorcycle (front) 120/70ZR17M/C"

  • "Motorcycle (rear) 190/55ZR17M/C"

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

Data Types: string

Tire model type, specified as one of these values:

  • "MF62"

  • "MF"

  • "MF52"

  • "Dugoff"

  • "Fiala"

Note

Using the "MF" option is equivalent to specifying ModelType as "MF62".

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)

Data Types: logical

Output Arguments

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