Tire/road friction coefficient estimation applied to road safety [PDF]
Recent statistics show that a large number of traffic accidents occur due to a loss of control on vehicle by the driver. This is mainly due to a loss of friction between tire and road. Many of these accidents could be avoided by introducing ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) based on the detection of loss of tire/road friction.

System for Investigation of Friction Properties of the Road Surface
Friction properties of the road surface have a great influence on the safety of automobile motion. These properties are characterized by the tyre-to-road adhesion coefficient, which is measured during the routine and acceptance investigations of roads ...

Photogrammetric approach to detect road pavement friction
This paper deals with evaluation of photogrammetric measurements of pavement macrotexture for the purposes of new non-contact method for determination of pavement skid resistance. The aim was to create a method that yields results comparable to existing pavement friction measurement techniques, particularly the sand method, and to assess whether the ...

Investigation and modelling of rubber friction [PDF]
PhDThe friction between a rubber surface in contact with a rigid surface is still not fully understood. Unlike other materials, friction behaviour in rubber is significantly dependent upon a variety of parameters due to its viscoelastic nature. The aim

Breakaway of a motor vehicle from skidding with the use of friction material on public and toting roads [PDF]
The goal of the paper is to provide breakaway of a motor vehicle from skidding with the use of friction material on public and toting roads.The development of an anti-skid device is reasonable because road services are not always able to maintain the ...

Steering has more potential than braking to prevent rear-end collisions at higher relative velocities. A path tracking controller based on multi-input multi-output (MIMO) model predictive control (MPC) is proposed to enhance the handling performance of ...

Influence of the road-surface texture on the speed dependency of tire/road friction
Tire/wet road friction depends on two road-surface texture scales: the macrotexture (centimeter- to millimeter dimensions) is responsible for the speed dependency of friction, and the microtexture (submillimeter dimensions) is responsible for the ...

The Influence of Internal Tyre Pressure on Road Friction [PDF]
Road safety is a very important topic for research and development divisions in the automotive industry. As the tyre is the only link between road surface and vehicle, it plays a very significant role in accident mitigation and prevention.
