      Hi everyone,

      I’m currently developing a trials motorcycle simulator and putting a lot of effort into the physics engine, specifically modeling realistic low-pressure tire deformation, energy dissipation and rebound behavior.

      Deformable tire model used in the simulator

      I have plenty of riding and action footage, but to calibrate the tire physics model itself, without the influence of motorcycle suspension or rider weight, I need some simple drop tests of a standalone wheel.

      A few short slow-motion videos would be extremely helpful. The ideal test would be:

      — A rear wheel with a low-pressure trials tire, without the motorcycle or suspension;
      — Dropped vertically from a few different heights onto a hard, flat surface;
      — Optionally, a few drops onto a narrow, hard edge/protrusion;
      — Camera positioned from the side so the tire deformation, compression and rebound are clearly visible;
      — Standard smartphone slow-motion (120/240 fps) is more than enough;
      — If possible, stating the approximate tire pressure (psi/bar) would be very useful.

      I’m not looking for high production value — just raw footage showing the shape of the deformation, maximum compression and rebound height, so I can tune the energy-loss parameters of the model.

      If anyone has a spare trials wheel or a workshop where you could record a quick 2-minute drop test, I would really appreciate your help.

      Thank you!
