▶ Maximum brake force
▶ Slip
The brake slip is the difference between the vehicle speed and the wheel circumference speed.
If the wheel locks, the slip is greatest, that is 100 %. If the wheel is running freely and unbraked,
the slip is the lowest, equal to 0 %. Slip can be calculated from the vehicle speed Vveh and the
wheel speed Vw. The equation for this is:
V - V
veh w
S = X 100 %
V
veh
Vveh = 100 km/h, Vw = 70 km/h
100 - 70
S = X 100 %
100
The slip is 30 %.
FBmax = Vehicle Weight x Adhesion

The braking process cannot be described
sufficiently accurately with the brake forces
calculated. The values calculated only apply
if the wheel is not locked. In the case of a
locking wheel, the static friction turns into
lower sliding friction, with the result that the
stopping distance is increased. This loss of
friction is termed "slip"
literature.
