Models will animate in HyperView version 10.0 and later, however the tire model and the road surface will not display in the animation. Forces at the wheel/hub interface can be displayed and will provide a good representation of how the tire behaves. Animating the forces will help you understand the tire vehicle behavior.
Note | Advanced tire animations of the tread/road behavior and the forces at the tire patch will be added in future releases of HyperWorks. |
Tire Carcass behavior along with detailed tire patch information can be animated using the FlexView Utility that is available with the RMOD-K installation (see the examples below):
