◆ GetCoefficientFriction()

virtual |
Get the terrain coefficient of friction at the point below the specified location.
This coefficient of friction value may be used by certain tire models to modify the tire characteristics, but it will have no effect on the interaction of the terrain with other objects (including tire models that do not explicitly use it).
Reimplemented in chrono::vehicle::SCMDeformableTerrain, chrono::vehicle::RigidTerrain, chrono::vehicle::RandomSurfaceTerrain, chrono::vehicle::GranularTerrain, chrono::vehicle::CRGTerrain, chrono::vehicle::FEADeformableTerrain, and chrono::vehicle::FlatTerrain.
