TYDEX workshop: standardisation of data exchange in tyre testing and tyre modelling
conference paper
As a result of the '1st International Colloquium on tyre models for vehicle dynamics Analysis' in 1991, the international 'TYDEX Workshop' working group was established. This workshop concentrated on the standardisation of the exchange of tyre measurement data and the interface between tyre and vehicle models in order to improve the communication between vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and research organisations. The development and knowledge of tyre behaviour is of great importance to both tyre and vehicle industry and will be intensified. Therefore the TYDEX Workshop showed great interest from all parties to come to some kind of standardisation. In the two expert groups - one focused on 'Tyre Measurements - Tyre Modelling' and the other on 'Tyre Modelling - Vehicle Modelling ' the TYDEX-Format and the Standard Tyre Interface have been developed, which will be explained in this paper. Furthermore a short overview of the European TIME project aiming at a standard tyre testing procedure will be given, which is reliable and consistent with realistic driving conditions. Elaborating standard testing procedures is one of the most important consequences from the TYDEX Workshop.
