This complies with the MARWIS friction calculation. For dry surfaces, we observed the maximum friction coefficient of up to 1.05. In the case of thinly iced surfaces, the value was between 0.2 and 0.45. On glazed frost, the friction values were between the absolute lowest value of 0.04 and 0.15. The friction coefficient was between 0.1 and 0.4 when the surface was icy. On snow it fluctuated between 0.15 and 0.4.<\/p><p>The <strong>complexity of the many possible influencing factors can thus be reduced quite well to just what is between the road and the tires<\/strong>. Therefore the research project confirmed, among other things, that the innovative sensor <strong>MARWIS serves as a good reference<\/strong> for (road) weather data and <strong>especially for the friction value<\/strong> which is influenced by the intermediate layer in form of snow, ice and water.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9990dcc elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"9990dcc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-926de4b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"926de4b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">You want to know more about the mobile sensor MARWIS or want to request a quote?
