Static Loads Analysis
A quasi-static simulation to study the effect of various load cases applied at the wheel center and tire patch.
Required input
- Point of application of the load (wheel center or tire patch)
- Load direction
- Load type (force or displacement)
- Load in newtons, newton-mm. or displacement in mm
- Load multiplier
- Load case number that the load belongs to
Task Description
Initially, a static simulation is performed with all the active loads belonging to a load case. This is followed by the resetting of the set of loads in the load cases, and the next set of load cases is applied. This process is repeated until all of the load cases are applied.
Output
A tabular report summarizing the forces and displacement on each body and each connectivity element is generated at every time step.
