Deformable Road

A DeformableRoad type graphic can be used in conjunction with a tire and Soft Soil road in vehicle models.

This graphic is used along with a tire and soft soil road to observe deformation contours in a MotionSolve result. Subsequent to the solution, MotionSolve will generate a separate h3d file to overlay with the main h3d result file.

To edit this graphic:

  1. Select the desired graphic by clicking on it in the Project Browser or in the modeling window.
