Progress and Monitoring Opportunities of Skid Resistance in Road Transport: A Critical Review and Road Sensors

Skid resistance is a significant feature that provides consistent traffic safety management for road pavements. An appropriate level of describes the contribution pavement surface makes to tire/road friction, and can reduce vehicle operation cost, accidents, fatalities, particularly in wet conditions. Wet conditions decrease skid (pavement friction), this may lead serious struggles related driving on (e.g., skidding or hydroplaning), which contributes higher crash rates. The knowledge essential ensure reliable transportation systems. Thus, suitable methodology measurement understanding characterization are key allow safe This paper presents critical review current state art research conducted techniques, taking into account field-based laboratory-based methodologies, novel sensors with regard various practices resistance, factors influencing concept minimum thresholds. In conclusion, new trends relevant data collection approaches innovative procedures further describe treatment discussed achieve better understanding, more accurate interoperability, proper resistance.
