As announced in the Round 5 thread, the FSAE TTC Round 5 data has recently been released on the TTC forum: sae.wsu.edu/ttc

You will need a TTC forum account to access the data. There are instructions for registering on the forum. You must be a TTC member to register.

Information on joining the FSAE TTC can be found at: www.millikenresearch.com/fsaettc.html

(I'm posting here since this Round 3 thread is still stickied, and Round 5 isn't.)

Hello,

i have a question:

Are the Pacejka Tire model coefficients also included in the round five for the 10 inch tires?

Or any Basic tire model that we can use in our Simulation program IPG Car Maker?

Thank you

The round 5 data hasn't been fit yet or at least the coefficients aren't on the forum. However there are fitting routines on there to fit a pacejka model onto the data. U might have to tweek it .. there are some issues relating to the parsing of the test run but otherwise it gives some pretty decent results.

The Japanese have come up with a brand new testing method that trumps all else....

Sticky posts will be made sticky again sometime this weekend.

The FSAE TTC just passed 350 members. Nice of FSAE.com to keep this big TTC thread sticky. A few thoughts:

+ Thanks to all the TTC contributors -- Calspan TIRF (show those logos!), tire companies, other industry supporters and volunteers...and of course all the member schools. The TTC has been far more successful than I ever imagined.

+ Not sure if your team is a member? Check the list (spreadsheet) at,
http://www.millikenresearch.com/fsaettcaccount.xls

+ After a rare outage, the TTC secure site is back up, thanks again to WSU for hosting. If your school is a member, you can register for the forum with your university domain email at, http://sae.wsu.edu/ttc/
It might take a day or two to be approved.

+ Not sure of the TTC license terms? Check the section named, "USE OF THE DATA – FSAE TTC LICENSE AGREEMENT" on this page, http://www.millikenresearch.com/fsaettc.html
To maintain our student discount at Calspan, it is important that there is no commercial use of the tire data or posting on the open internet. The TTC secure forum is the place to discuss the tire data in detail.

+ There are now funds to support Round 6, but we haven't found any good candidate tires yet. Any suggestions, please post to the secure forum.

I know it is not directly related to FSAE but since so many experts on the subject are here, does anybody have access to curves/data for kart tyres?
