  • Abstract
    Although the public is becoming increasingly conscious of the fire and explosion hazards presented by static electricity, development of precautionary measures has been seriously impeded by lack of understanding of the nature of the problem. This study of the fundamental elements of static electricity on rubber-tired vehicles is intended to provide a basis for developing methods of control.
