The digital transformation for vehicle, chassis, systems and tire design is on its way for the sake of vehicle performances, lead-time and cost reduction. It leads to deep changes into automotive industry design processes and Michelin leads these fast-evolving trends and technical strategies with a complete approach from virtual tire design to tire models delivered to the OEM and fast iterations.
Based on some on-going application cases, the study will show a range of possi-ble efficient virtualization of the chassis-tire development on different perfor-mances such as vehicle dynamics, max handling, interior noise or rolling re-sistance.
It will be explained how FEA calculations can be connected to tire models’ pre-dictions to virtually design different specification letters and pre-screen some de-sign orientation without building any prototype tires.
