Difference between Friction and Slippery rail

Friction vs. Slippery rail

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. Slippery rail or low railhead adhesion, is a condition of railways (railroads) where contamination of the railhead causes trains to experience less adhesion (grip).

Similarities between Friction and Slippery rail

Friction and Slippery rail have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adhesion railway, Brake shoe, Disc brake, Traction (engineering), Tribology.

Adhesion railway

An adhesion railway relies on adhesion traction to move the train.

Brake shoe

A brake shoe is the part of a braking system which carries the brake lining in the drum brakes used on automobiles, or the brake block in train brakes and bicycle brakes.

Disc brake

A disc brake is a type of brake that uses calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc or "rotor" to create friction.

Traction (engineering)

Traction, or tractive force, is the force used to generate motion between a body and a tangential surface, through the use of dry friction, though the use of shear force of the surface is also commonly used.
