What are MF-Tyre & MF-Swift?
MF-Tyre is the Delft-Tyre standard implementation of the renowned Pacejka Magic Formula that includes the latest developments. With MF-Tyre the engineer can simulate validated steady-state and transient behaviour up to 8Hz, making it the ideal tyre model for handling and control prototyping analyses. Pure cornering and braking as well as combined conditions are accurately described. The robust extrapolation properties of MF-Tyre make the model suitable for the simulation of conditions that go beyond the measurement conditions.
MF-Swift is the high frequency (100Hz) extension to MF-Tyre. MF-Swift adds generic 3D obstacle enveloping and tyre belt dynamics to MF-Tyre's tyre-road contact force and moment simulation. Typical application areas for MF-Swift are vehicle comfort analysis, suspension vibration analysis, development of vehicle control systems, such as ABS or ESP, and handling and stability analysis like braking and power-off in a turn on an uneven road.
Both MF-Tyre and MF-Swift have been developed and extensively validated using numerous measurements and experiments.
