Abstract: A computer-implemented method for evaluating wear of a tire with a non-axisymmetric tread pattern, the method comprising: providing a wear model of the tire configured to convert a frictional energy rate into a wear energy rate; providing a first three-dimensional, 3D, model of the tire with the non-axisymmetric tread pattern; generating a plurality of simplified 3D models based at least in part on the first 3D model of the tire with the non-axisymmetric tread pattern; performing a plurality of steady-state transport analyses based at least in part on each one of the plurality of simplified 3D models; post-processing the results of each of the plurality of performed steady-state transport analyses; and evaluating the wear of the tire with the non-axisymmetric tread pattern based on the post-processed results of the plurality of performed steady-state transport analyses and the wear model.
