A Rational Theory of Tire-Pavement Friction

Table 1

Approximate values of the microhysteretic rubber friction force, , generated during the Yager et al. [9] sliding, side friction force tests of full-scale, rotating, and bias-ply aircraft tires at five different slip angles.

Tire slip angle	Value of microhysteretic force	Side CoF at 10,000 lb load
1°	450 lbf	0.125
2°	900 lbf	0.25
5°	1,100 lbf	0.475
9°	1,300 lbf	0.6
12°	1,600 lbf	0.675
