R2026b

Convert tire data to structure

Since R2023b

Syntax

S = struct(obj)

Description

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Extended Tire Features for Vehicle Dynamics Blockset add-on.

S = struct(obj) converts the tireData object specified by obj to a structure, S. Each tireData object property becomes a field in S, and object information is lost.

Examples

Convert Tire Data to Structure

Convert a tireData object to a MATLAB^® structure. This is useful when passing tire data to functions that accept structures or when saving data to a .mat file without preserving object class information.

Generate synthetic steady-state tire data.

td = tireData.generate("Steady-State", ...
    Fz=4000, ...
    alpha=0, ...
    kappa=0, ...
    gamma=0, ...
    Vx=16.7, ...
    IP=220000)

td = 
  tireData with properties:

      CoordinateSystem: "ISO"
              Filename: [0×0 string]
              Filepath: [0×0 string]
                    et: [0×1 double]
                 seget: [0×1 double]
               segment: [1000×1 double]
              measnumb: [1000×1 double]
                    Fx: [0×1 double]
                    Fy: [0×1 double]
                    Fz: [1000×1 double]

Convert the tireData object to a structure. Each property becomes a field and object class information is lost.

S = struct(td);
fieldnames(S)

ans = 86×1 cell
'CoordinateSystem'  
'Filename'          
'Filepath'          
'et'                
'seget'             
'segment'           
'measnumb'          
'Fx'                
'Fy'                
'Fz'                

Input Arguments

obj — Tire data

tireData object | array of tireData objects

Tire data, specified as a tireData object or an array of tireData objects.

Output Arguments

S — Converted tire data

structure | structure array

Converted tire data, returned as a structure or structure array.
