Abstract
A transient response of a tire is simulated by using a effective data of a physical amount. The physical amount is set as a rolling condition of the tire and varies in time. The effective data of the physical amount is calculated by a convolution integral of a response function of an introduced first-order lag response and a time gradient of time-series data of the physical amount. In a tire model determining method, a time constant of a response function of the first-order lag response is determined from measured transient response data. In a tire transient response data calculating method, a transient response data is calculated by using the effective data of the physical amount which is calculated by using a desired physical amount and the first-order lag response.
