Presentation

The virtous circle of tire measurement, modeling and correlation

FORS Performance is an engineering company, created in 2016, which has developed specific expertise on tire understanding, measurement, modeling and in relation to the ground and the vehicles as a whole. FORS Performance has developed the virtuous circle approach, consisting of a combination of various measurements protocols and bench, specific expertise in tire physics and modeling, and on-track correlation work to create a continuous learning and improving tire knowledge database. In this presentation FORS Manager will introduce this vision, aimed at producing industry leading tire knowledge and its influence on vehicle performance.
