Cornering Force

Most Common

Cornering force is the lateral force produced by a vehicle tire during cornering. Cornering force is generated by tire slip and is proportional to slip angle at low slip angles. The rate at which cornering force builds up is described by relaxation length. Slip angle describes the deformation of the tire contact patch, and this deflection of the contact patch deforms the tire in a fashion akin to a spring.

Coefficient of Friction

A coefficient of friction is a value that shows the relationship between the force of friction between two objects and thenormal force between the objects. It is a value that is used in physics sometimes to find an objects normal force or frictional force, when other methods aren't available.The coefficient of friction is shown by f = \mu F_{n}\,. In that equation, f is the frictional force, \mu is the coefficient of friction, and F_{n}\, is the normal force.
