Simcenter Tire for Precise Vehicle Performance Simulation

Understanding and predicting how tires influence overall vehicle behavior is essential in designing safer, more efficient, and more comfortable vehicles. Simcenter Tire offers a comprehensive simulation environment that allows engineers to model tire behavior with high fidelity, supporting accurate predictions for key vehicle dynamics such as braking performance, directional stability, and ride comfort.

Tires are among the most nonlinear components in a vehicle, with characteristics that shift dramatically depending on speed, load, terrain, and environmental conditions. Simcenter Tire enables engineers to effectively simulate these complex behaviors early in the development cycle. By doing so, it significantly reduces physical prototyping requirements and shortens time to market, while enhancing confidence in performance outcomes.

The platform supports a wide range of vehicle applications—from vehicle handling and control system design to ride and comfort assessment and durability analysis. With the integration of leading tire modeling tools such as MF-Tyre and MF-Swift, Simcenter Tire delivers robust and scalable solutions for both real-time and high-fidelity simulation needs. The suite also includes MF-Tool, which provides parameter estimation and fitting tools to refine model accuracy based on real-world data.
