An Analysis is a collection of model configuration, analysis loadcase and analysis set-up selections that completely specifies
the assembly definition for a particular loadcase simulation event.
Create panel sets by selecting nodes/elements and/or existing node sets in the model file, that will automatically be
used in setting up Panel Participation diagnostic output in NVH analysis.
Create and handle tire modules in different formats, such as CDtire and modal
model.
From the Analyse ribbon, click the Tire Patch
tool.
Fraunhofer functionalities are integrated to generate CDTire models. Tire models, CDTire
and/or modal models can be added in the Tire Patch Points Manager. Corresponding
representations can be created, repositioned and assigned to tire modules. The defined tire
patch points will automatically be used in setting up input or constraints to the tire patch
points in NVH analysis.
By default, four tire patch point sets are listed in the dialog. To create tire modules,
generate tire models and define tire patch points for a set, highlight the row corresponding
to the set, and then click the icon, which opens the Define tire patch point
dialog.
A tire module is created by clicking the icon corresponding to the Module name, which opens the Add
module dialog. You can create a new tire module or select a tire module that
was already created. A new tire module is created by specifying a Module name, a DMIG label
name (for CDTire), the ID range and then selecting the Attachment TagPoint with the relevant
module.
A tire is created by clicking the icon corresponding to the tire, which opens the Add
module dialog. You can define tire models for CDTire and modal model.
To create a CDTire, select CDTIRE as the Tire type. This will activate the options
necessary to generate a CDTire H3D file from Fraunhofer’s Parameter file. Select the
Parameter file, specify the relevant options, and click Create to
create the H3D file.
To define the modal model, select MODALFE as the Tire type. Select
the relevant file and then click Extract TagLabels. Next, select the
Attachment Tagpoint, Patch points, and then
click Create.
Now the defined tire models are available in the Define tire patch point dialog. Select the
Tire and assign it to a selected or created tire module. Multiple tires can be assigned to a
single tire module. Patch points are loaded for the tire selected.
The assigned tire to the tire modules is defined as a separate representation. For CDTire,
the H3D DMIG names are also visible for your information.
