Rolling Resistance Formula

Formula

F_rr = C_rr × N

Where:

  • • F_rr = rolling resistance force (N)
  • • C_rr = coefficient of rolling resistance
  • • N = normal force (N)

Typical Coefficients

  • • Concrete/Asphalt: 0.01-0.02
  • • Gravel: 0.02-0.04
  • • Sand: 0.08-0.30
  • • Grass: 0.05-0.10
