  2. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    Rolling resistance, sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force resisting the motion when a body (such as a ball, tire, or wheel) rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects; that is, not all the energy needed for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, etc., is recovered when the pressure is removed.

  3. Van der Pauw method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Pauw_method

    The van der Pauw Method is a technique commonly used to measure the resistivity and the Hall coefficient of a sample. Its strength lies in its ability to accurately measure the properties of a sample of any arbitrary shape, as long as the sample is approximately two-dimensional (i.e. it is much thinner than it is wide), solid (no holes), and the electrodes are placed on its perimeter.

  5. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    Generally the force of rolling resistance is less than that associated with kinetic friction. [74] Typical values for the coefficient of rolling resistance are 0.001. [75] One of the most common examples of rolling resistance is the movement of motor vehicle tires on a road, a process which generates heat and sound as by-products. [76]

  6. 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 ...

  7. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    The life of a rolling bearing is expressed as the number of revolutions or the number of operating hours at a given speed that the bearing is capable of enduring before the first sign of metal fatigue (also known as spalling) occurs on the race of the inner or outer ring, or on a rolling element. Calculating the endurance life of bearings is ...

    However, a smaller rolling resistance also leads to a lower wet grip performance, which poses concerns of the passenger's safety. The problem can be partially solved by replacing Cb with silica , because it enables the production of "green" tires that display both improved wet grip properties as well as a smaller rolling resistance.
