N2  - Tire tread pattern affects the performance of motor vehicles and traffic safety; therefore, designing it accurately is very important. This paper mainly discusses the arithmetic that can form tire tread patterns automatically and rapidly. The algorithm flow is given. Then, the principle of planar picture creating three-dimensional patterns concretely is analyzed. The experimental results of the meridian tire pattern based on the UG API function prove the feasibility and excellence of the proposed method.<p />
