  2. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

    Figure 1 Hard wheel rolling on and deforming a soft surface, resulting in the reaction force R from the surface having a component that opposes the motion. (W is some vertical load on the axle, F is some towing force applied to the axle, r is the wheel radius, and both friction with the ground and friction at the axle are assumed to be negligible and so are not shown.

  3. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    Rolling resistance is the force that resists the rolling of a wheel or other circular object along a surface caused by deformations in the object or surface. 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]

  4. Traction (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_(mechanics)

    It is the force which makes an object move over the surface by overcoming all the resisting forces like friction, normal loads (load acting on the tiers in negative Z axis), air resistance, rolling resistance, etc.

  5. Your tires actually play a surprising role in how fast you ride, and what you think you know about rolling resistance is probably wrong.

  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. Resistive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistive_force

    Friction, during sliding and/or rolling; Drag (physics), during movement through a fluid (see fluid dynamics) Normal force, exerted reactionally back on the acting body by the compressive, tensile or shear stress within the recipient body; Intermolecular forces, when separating adhesively bonded surfaces

  8. Talk:Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Rolling_resistance

    where F is the rolling resistance force (shown in figure 1), r is the wheel radius, b is the rolling resistance coefficient or coefficient of rolling friction with dimension of length, and N is the normal force (equal to W, not R, as shown in figure 1). Equating the above two equations, and solving for b, gives b = Crr·r.

  9. Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

    Energy (from Ancient Greek ἐνέργεια (enérgeia) 'activity') is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.
