In addition, dynamometer test results have been compared and correlated to vehicle testing
Even though there is already a vast amount of anecdotal evidence confirming the fact that different procedures generate different friction coefficients on the same brake corner, the availability of supporting data to the industry has been elusive up to this point
To overcome this issue, this paper focuses on assessing friction levels, friction c
