摘要:
In computing the overall material constant of a composite material, a virtual composite material is defined as the one that predetermined material components are dispersed in a form of spherical particles in a matrix phase at known volume fractions, and a nonlinear equation having the overall material constant of the virtual composite material as an unknown is prepared. Next, the overall material constant of the composite material is computed by solving the nonlinear equation. The nonlinear equation is a recursive nonlinear equation which is obtained by defining the material constant in the surrounding areas of the spherical particles as the overall material constant of the composite material to be computed. The volume fraction of a material component dispersed in the composite material is computed using the recursive nonlinear equation.

Values of multiple tire dynamic element parameters are set for a tire dynamic model constructed using the tire dynamic element parameters for calculating a tire axial force and a self-aligning torque under a given slip ratio. Next, the values of the tire axial force and the self-aligning torque are calculated using the tire dynamic model and output. The tire dynamic model allows a center position of a contact patch thereof against a road surface to move in accordance with a longitudinal force that occurs as the tire axial force when a slip ratio in a braking/driving direction is given so that a position of the contact patch moves in a longitudinal direction due to the longitudinal force. When designing a vehicle or when designing a tire, the tire dynamic model is used.

Tire transient response data during cornering with a slip angle is calculated based on a tire dynamic model. A deformation response of a tread part in the tire dynamic is set as a first-order-lag response. The value of the transient response parameter is initialized, to define the first-order-lag response. The time-series data of the transient response of the slip angle between the tread part and a road surface in the tire dynamic model is obtained by computing a convolution integral of the defined response function of the first-order-lag response with a time gradient of the time-series data of the slip angle. A value of a lateral force is calculated by using the tire dynamic model based on the obtained time-series data of the transient response of the slip angle. Accordingly, the transient response data is calculated, and a value of the transient response parameter is obtained.
