This section provides an alternative to vertical_stiffness. If specified, the x and y data in this section define a smooth spline, representing the non-linear deflection/load characteristic of the tire. Arbitrarily, many x and y data of tire deflection (length) and radial load (force) can be specified, one or more in a line. Deflection values must be monotonously increasing. TeimOrbit compatible comment lines are allowed between the data lines.
Below is an example of a valid [DEFLECTION_LOAD_CURVE] section:
[DEFLECTION_LOAD_CURVE]
0 0.0
5 400.0
10 1250.0
20 4000.0
30 8500.0
Note | The [DEFLECTION_LOAD_CURVE] section is optional. |
