This paper aims to study and compare the temperature distributions caused by mutual
sliding of two members of the disc brake system basing on two-and three-dimensional FE …

This article is concerned with frictional heating phenomenon playing a central role in disc
brake (clutch) systems performance. It was of great interest to carry the description of …

The disk–pad brake used in an automobile is divided into two parts: the disk, geometrically
axisymmetric; and the pad, of which the geometry is three-dimensional. Using a two …

Maintaining appropriate levels of friction interface temperature is important for the overall
operating effectiveness of modern friction brakes, and implicitly the safety of the vehicle …

A finite–element method is developed for determining the critical sliding speed for
thermoelastic instability of an axisymmetric clutch or brake. Linear perturbations on the …

Numerical modeling of the rotational motion of the brake disc during frictional heating
requires the use of specialized software. In this paper, an alternative approach was …

The aim of this article is to explain the damage mechanisms of disc brakes leading to
macroscopic cracks on the friction surface. The work combines microanalysis of cracks and …

Brake is a device by means of which artificial frictional resistance is applied to moving
machine member, in order to stop the motion of a machine. Disc brake is usually made of …

The use of asbestos in brake pads is being eliminated due to its carcinogenic effect. Due to
this, there is a need for better alternative in the brake pad material to replace asbestos fibers …

Excessively high brake temperature may lead to brake fading and failure, resulting in truck
runaway down a graded descent. The accurate prediction of the changes in the brake‐drum …
