Matching analysis is a key step in the process of verifying adaptation carbon-ceramic brake discs to high-speed trains’ braking system. Relevant research on matching tends be carried out only single parameter disc. Due this lack comprehensive analysis, data-driven, parametric method proposed address problem. We have summarised parameters three dimensions: assembly interface, physical characteri...

Re-measurement of existing, manufactured parts and re-creation 3D models these brought about the concept reverse engineering. Reverse engineering has become a frequently applied utilized in processes such as repairing damaged parts, improving used making new designs based on old parts. One main methods widely by many branches is photogrammetry. Photogrammetry, which includes wide range applicat...

The challenge of reducing vehicle energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions has become a major orientation automotive industry research throughout the world. Improving optimizing power by electric vehicles is special concern. A novel use thermoelectric generators in braking presented. Thermal analysis brake pads discs using finite elements was applied to evaluate potentially available for...

Gray cast iron (GCI) with a pearlitic matrix and type-A graphite remains the most widely used material in manufacturing of brake discs. To reduce environmental impact disc wear during braking, alternative materials and/or compositions to standard ones are being studied. In this study, effect variation niobium content (0–0.7 wt%) on microstructure behavior samples machined from discs made hypoeu...

Exhaust regulations and improved exhaust gas treatment systems have already initiated the trend that brings emissions from brakes tires to forefront of traffic-induced particulate matter. The health environmental relevance matter has resulted in regulators, industry, research institutions prioritising mitigation non-exhaust particle emissions. To this end, under umbrella United Nations Economic...

Abstract Taking into account physical factors such as the wind effect of brake disc pump, heat dissipation power, and temperature rise, optimal cross-sectional shape layout cooling fins are studied. The flow field distribution pump-wind power ratio four different shapes, namely circular, elliptical, square, rhombic, compared analyzed. characteristics, effect, under two layouts, crosswise parall...
