Excerpt from Tire Friction Coefficients and Their Relation to Ground-Run Distance in LandingFor a turf field when wet, very little data are available. The values found do not appear to be conclu sive and more information on this point is desired.Information is also lacking on the effects of high speed and of tire size on braking coefficients. The values given, with the exception of the data obtained from naca landing tests, are for automobile tires tested at speeds not exceeding 45 miles per hour. The evidence at hand, however, does not point to the likelihood of any radical changes in the general conclusions when these factors become known. Likewise, although reference I shows an increase in friction coefficient on wet concrete with a decrease in temperature, introduction of this fac tor would appear to constitute a refinement rather than a fundamental revision.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
