mmkay, here goes:
Originaly posted by you, M:
If your wheel is a smooth surface (i.e., aluminum, two wheel chair wheels), double the area will do nothing to aid your traction at all. It will increase by a factor of 1.
So you are saying that on a smooth regular surface, the surface area doesn't matter.
Ok, so how about an irregular surface where the tire and and surface can intermesh, say on carpet?
From the whitepaper,: When the surface area went down the friction increased
Wait, is this saying that not only did the traction not go down, it went up?
Hmmm....
