Brake design and safety
TLDR
This book is a single source of information on all essential concepts, guidelines and design checks required for designing safer brakes.Abstract:
The objectives of this third edition of an SAE classic title are to provide readers with the basic theoretical fundamentals and analytical tools necessary to design braking systems for passenger vehicles and trucks that comply with safety standards, minimize consumer complaints, and perform safely and efficiently before and while electronic brake controls become active. This book, written for students, engineers, forensic experts, and brake technicians, provides readers with theoretical knowledge of braking physics, and offers numerous illustrations and equations that make the information easy to understand and apply. New to this edition are expanded chapters on: • Thermal analysis of automotive brakes • Analysis of hydraulic brake systems • Single vehicle braking dynamicsread more

Influence of convective cooling on a disc brake temperature distribution during repetitive braking
Adam Adamowicz,P. Grzes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of convective mode of heat transfer on the thermal behavior of a disc brake system during repetitive braking process with the constant velocity using fully three-dimensional finite element model.

Investigation of temperature and thermal stress in ventilated disc brake based on 3D thermo-mechanical coupling model
Pyung Hwang,Xuan Wu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the temperature and thermal stress in the ventilated disc-pad brake during single brake deceleration, where the brake disc is decelerated at the initial speed with constant acceleration, until the disc comes to a stop.

Gliding flight: speed and acceleration of ideal falcons during diving and pull out.
TL;DR: This study investigates the aerodynamic and gravitational forces on 'ideal falcons' and uses a mathematical model to calculate speed and acceleration during diving and finds real falcons would encounter both advantages and disadvantages by diving at the top speeds of ideal falcons, and whether they achieve those speeds remains to be investigated.
