A comprehensive literature review on the recent advances in braking systems technology using FEA

Abstract

"An object remains in its state of rest or in motion until and unless acted upon by an external force"Newton's first law of motion, Braking systems were made possible by this rule of Sir Isaac Newton, which states that the greater the vehicle's speed, the greater the brake force needed to slow it down. This idea spawned several studies in the subject of braking, leading to its development, which in turn has given us the luxury of picking the most effective braking system for any given situation. This research analyses the thermomechanical behaviour of dry disc-to-pad contact during braking using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Air ventilation and friction will be increased by modulating the design for disc heating issue due to long life of brake disc. The modeling of transient disc brake temperature is used to determine the disc's geometric design for vehicle ventilation. The thermal-structural analysis is coupled to calculate disc deformation, Von Mises stress, as well as pad contact temperature distribution. The findings match the specialist literature.
