Abstract
This book introduces novel concepts on slip resistance measurements for the pedestrian fall safety assessments from a viewpoint of tribology. Whilst significant questions on the pedestrian fall safety evaluations still remain, this book proposes a foundation to understand complex characteristics and mechanisms of frictional and wear behaviours of the shoes and floors and their interactive effects on slip resistance performance amongst shoes, floors, and environments.
