RMOD-K tire Version 7 is supported in version 11.0. This release supports various tire and road models as described below:

Tire Models

  • Rigid Belt Model (RFNRB)
  • Flexible Belt Model (DMRB)

The tire models, their use, and the underlying assumptions behind them are described in the RMOD-K Users Manual available on their website (http://www.rmod-k.com).

Road Models

  • Parametric Object Model - The parametric object model road describes the initial road surface and then allows you to describe a series of parametric objects on the road. Parametric objects include a spherical calotte, a cuboid with an optional chamfer, a triangle, and a cylinder.
  • 3D Road Scan - This is a scanned road surface. A point cloud , a wavefront file, and a variety of other files can be used to generate road surface models from measured data. Road surfaces can be measured using a road profilometer.

Operating Systems

The following operating systems are currently supported:
  • Windows 32
