An improved Magic Formula/Swift tyre model that can handle inflation pressure changes

article
This paper describes extensions to the widely used TNO MF-Tyre 5.2 Magic Formula tyre model. The Magic Formula itself has been adapted to cope with large camber angles and inflation pressure changes. In addition, the description of the rolling resistance has been improved. Modelling of the tyre dynamics has been changed to allow a seamless and consistent switch from simple first-order relaxation behaviour to rigid ring dynamics. Finally, the effect of inflation pressure on the loaded radius and the tyre enveloping properties is discussed and some results are given to illustrate the capabilities of the model.
