Thank you for the reply Soeren, I will also check the reference you gave. However, can I just clarify what you mean. You use the phrase 'adhesion coeff,', are you saying that this is something different & perhaps additional to the 'friction coeff.'? If so, is it a factor related to the area of...
The theoretical grip from an automotive tyre is simply R*mu, where mu is the co-efficient of friction of the tyre & R the reaction force between the tyre & ground.<br>
Consequently the maximum cornering & braking accelerations of a car are simply mu*g (assuming no aerodynamic...
