Falken Tyre’s parent company, Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd (SRI) has developed a new simulation technique called “Tyre Aerodynamic Simulation” for use in EV tyre development.
Sumitomo to Increase Focus on Reducing Air Resistance
To reduce energy consumption and increase the range of EVs, it is important to minimise both rolling resistance as well as air resistance around the tyre. Sumitomo will pursue the development of a tyre profile that optimises aerodynamic performance. By visualising the airflow around the tyre of a moving vehicle through its own AI powered simulation...
