longitudinal slip velocity — the difference between the spin velocity of the driven or braked tire and the spin velocity of the straight free rolling tire. Both spin velocities are measured at the same linear velocity at the wheel center in the x direction. A positive value… … Mechanics glossary
slip — longitudinal slip percent slip … Mechanics glossary
Slip (aerodynamic) — A slip is an aerodynamic state where an aircraft is moving sideways as well as forward relative to the oncoming airflow. In other words, for a conventional aircraft, the nose will not be pointing directly into the relative wind . Flying in a slip … Wikipedia
slip joint — [1] A joint that will transfer driving torque from one shaft to another while allowing longitudinal movement between the two shafts. A variable length connection that permits the driveshaft or axle shaft to change its length as the shaft moves up … Dictionary of automotive terms
percent slip — see longitudinal slip … Mechanics glossary
forward slip — A flight maneuver in which the aircraft follows its intended flight path but its longitudinal axis is not aligned with this path. The pilot applies the aileron in one direction and the rudder in the opposite. The aircraft then loses height… … Aviation dictionary
braking stiffness — the rate of change of longitudinal force with respect to change in longitudinal slip, usually evaluated at zero longitudinal slip … Mechanics glossary
Tire load sensitivity — describes the behaviour of tires under load. Conventional pneumatic tires do not behave as classical friction theory would suggest. Friction theory says that the maximum horizontal force developed should be proportional to the vertical load on… … Wikipedia
velocity — 1) a vector quantity equal to the rate that position changes with time 2) velocity of a point in a vibrating system is the time rate of change of its displacement. ambient wind velocity forward velocity impact velocity lateral velocity… … Mechanics glossary
squeal — narrow band airborne tire noise (150 800 Hz) resulting from either longitudinal slip or slip angle or both. braking squeal driving squeal cornering squeal … Mechanics glossary
