  2. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    At high torques, which apply a tangential force to the road of about half the weight of the vehicle, the rolling resistance may triple (a 200% increase). [47] This is in part due to a slip of about 5%. The rolling resistance increase with applied torque is not linear, but increases at a faster rate as the torque becomes higher.

  3. SAE J2452 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J2452

    SAE J1269 and SAE J2452 performed on new tires. SAE J2452 is a standard defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers [1] to measure the rolling resistance of tires. [2] Where the older standard, SAE J1269, produces measurements of rolling resistance under steady-state (i.e. thermally equilibrated) operating conditions, SAE J2452 produces measurements during a transient history of speed that ...

  4. Low rolling resistance tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_rolling_resistance_tire

    The rolling resistance coefficient (RRC) indicates the amount of force required to overcome the hysteresis of the material as the tire rolls. Tire pressure, vehicle weight and velocity all play a role in how much force is lost to rolling resistance. The basic model equation for SAE J2452 is: Rolling Resistance (N / lbs) = (+ +) where: is the ...

  5. SAE J1269 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J1269

    SAE J1269 is a standard test defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers [1] to measure the rolling resistance of tires under conditions of thermal equilibrium. [2] [3] SAE J2452 is an alternative procedure for measuring rolling resistance under conditions similar to a vehicle coastdown event, where the tire is in a roughly isothermal condition (but not thermal equilibrium).

  6. Rail vehicle resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_vehicle_resistance

    The rail vehicle resistance (or train resistance or simply resistance) is the total force necessary to maintain a rail vehicle in motion. This force depends on a number of variables and is of crucial importance for the energy efficiency of the vehicle as it is proportional to the locomotive power consumption. [ 1 ]

  7. Rules of the Road: Heard of low-rolling-resistance tires ...

    You might already be driving on low-rolling-resistance (LRR) tires. They’ve been around since the 1990s but haven’t received much attention until more recently. If you drive a car with a ...

  8. Vehicle-specific power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle-specific_power

    [1] [2] Informally, it is the sum of the loads resulting from aerodynamic drag, acceleration, rolling resistance, and hill climbing, all divided by the mass of the vehicle. [1] Conventionally, it is reported in kilowatts per tonne, [1] the instantaneous power demand of the vehicle divided by its mass. [2]

  9. Curve resistance (railroad) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_resistance_(railroad)

    In railway engineering, curve resistance is a part of train resistance, namely the additional rolling resistance a train must overcome when travelling on a curved section of track. [1] Curve resistance is typically measured in per mille , with the correct physical unit being Newton per kilo-Newton (N/kN).
