Determination of Magic Formula tyre model parameters

article
Tyre behaviour plays an important role in vehicle dynamics studies. The Magic Formula Tyre Model is a semi-empirical tyre model which can describe tyre behaviour quite accurately. A set of Magic Formula parameters constitutes the basis of the model. The determination of these parameters out of tyre measurement data produced by the Delft tyre measurement trailer is dealt with in this paper. Problems that may occur during the 'fitting process' are indicated as well. The comparison between the latest version and the 'Monte Carlo version' of the tyre model shows that the latest version results in better fitting results especially for camber influences and (even more important) in an improvement on the fitting process.
