3. Programming of driving simulator applications and test data evaluation tools
4. Technical evaluation of tire characteristics, taking tire mechanics into account
5. Support in the creation, parameterization and interpretation of tire models
6. Evaluation and analysis of vehicle test data from objective driving tests (, handling, lateral dynamics)
7. Planning of test series, selection of appropriate measurement equipment and test vehicles
