How to simulate a single wheel rolling on the ground?

3 views (last 30 days)
I have a wheel I built with Inventor and wanted to simulate it rolling over an even ground (including its wobbling and falling over due to lack of speed) using the SimMechanics export function. The wheel is to have infinite friction with the ground (no slip) and only one contact point (the tyre has a round profile) with it. Is there an easy way of doing it, letting Simulink sort inertia and stability from the geometry provided by the export? Does Simulink have a "ground" of some sort, or should I include it as a Part in Inventor? Are there any Tutorials on that I might have missed on that topic?
Thanks a lot!
Daniel
