Division 4.2.8.1 Calculation of the peak braking force coefficientF1

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

The tyre peak braking force coefficient ( μ peak ) is the highest value of μ(t) before lockup occurs calculated as follows for each test run. Analogue signals should be filtered to remove noise. Digitally recorded signals must be filtered using a moving average technique.

μ(t) = fh(t) fv(t)

where:

  • μ(t) is the dynamic tyre braking force coefficient in real time;

  • fh(t) is the dynamic braking force in real time, in N;

  • fv(t) is the dynamic vertical load in real time, in N.
