The core innovation objectives of ModEl-FuturE are the creation of novel numerical tools for predictive wear simulations in combination with the elaboration of advanced experimental methods and the development of sustainable soft materials. Specifically, the numerical approaches address a so-called Digital Shadow for tire wear simulations considering damage, healing and abrasion features of a new generation of elastomeric materials. The Digital Shadow is a milestone on the roadmap to create a cyber-physical system. The innovative potential of the project fosters strongly the goals of sustainable develop¬ment, such as a low carbon footprint of product processing and application, which is in line with the topical program. ModEl-FuturE has the potential for significant scientific and commercial impact, for all involved partners, through the generation of valuable intellectual property (IP) guided by a clear plan for the exploitation and dissemination of project results.
