6、thods as outlined in these test methods.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the measurement of two typesof ABS vehicle behavior that reflect differences in tire wettraction performance when the vehicle is fitted with a series ofdifferent tire sets to be evaluated.1.1.1 The stopping distance from som
7、e selected speed atwhich the brakes are applied.1.1.2 The lack of control of the vehicle during the brakingmaneuver.Uncontrollability occurs when the vehicle does notfollow the intended trajectory during the period of brakeapplication despite a conscious effort on the part of a skilleddriver to main
8、tain trajectory control.Uncontrollability is mea-sured by a series of parameters related to this deviation fromthe intended trajectory and the motions that the vehicle makesduring the stopping maneuver.1.1.3 Although anti-lock braking systems maintain wheelrotation and allow for a high degree of tra
9、jectory control,different sets of tires with variations in construction,treadpattern,and tread compound may influence the degree oftrajectory control in addition to stopping distance.Thus vehicleuncontrollability is an important evaluation parameter for tirewet traction performance.1.2 These test me
10、thods specify that the wet braking tractiontests be conducted on two specially prepared test courses:(1)a straight-line(rectilinear)“split-”(=friction coefficient)test course,with two test lanes deployed along the test course(as traveled by the test vehicle);the two lanes have substan-tially differe
11、nt friction levels such that the left pair of wheelstravels on one surface while the right pair of wheels travels onthe other surface;and(2)a curved trajectory constant pathradius course with uniform pavement for both wheel lanes.1.3 As with all traction testing where vehicle uncontrolla-bility is a
12、 likely outcome,sufficient precautions shall be takento protect the driver,the vehicle,and the test site facilities fromdamage due to vehicle traction breakaway during testing.1These test methods are under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee F09 on Tiresand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee
