  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. SAE J2452 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J2452

    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) = P α Z β (a + bV + cV ...

    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. 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. 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]

    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. 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.

  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).
