The method of calculating average skidding distance

Abstract

By analyzing the existing average skidding distance formulae and the shape of the landing area, the authors put forward that the average skidding distance is the shortest when the ratio of length and width is 1, and the landing collection area is in proportion to of average geometrical skidding distance. The new models of calculating average distance are presented.
