Gear3D

Truck axle configurations and aircraft landing gear — deterministic, true to scale, measurable, and exportable as footprint coordinates for finite-element pre-processing.

Ghost hidden parts

Click an axle in the viewport to isolate it. Esc steps back one level.

Configuration

Wide-base

Select a dual-tire axle in the tree, then swap it. The outer tire edge is held so the vehicle's overall width does not change.

Inflation kPa

Contact pressure is taken equal to inflation pressure and uniform over the patch. Both are idealisations — the export header states them in full.

Seed

The seed fixes every procedural detail. The same seed and settings always render the identical figure.
