Footwear soles friction on steel and tile surfaces: Experiments and modeling

Understanding and modeling the friction between footwear soles and substrates is important to avoid slips. In this study, we measure the friction force for three different footwear soles sliding on steel and tile surfaces. We use a vulcanized rubber (RU), a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and a po...
