Presentation Transcript

  1. Research into the Fundamentals of Friction in an Automotive Brake system • Organic brake pads apply clamping force normal to the surface of the rotor via a hydraulic piston • Normal force between two solid in relative motion produce friction • Automotive brake systems utilize this concept to control and stop vehicle motion with operator input to a hydraulic system

  2. Contact within Pad/Rotor Brake system • Primary contact plateaus initiate real area of contact (50 – 500 μm) • Secondary plateaus develop as debris is collected between primary plateaus

  3. Load Effects on Contact Larger pressure (normal force) between pad and rotor produce: • More contact plateaus • Increasing real area of contact • Increase frictional resistance

  4. Thermo Influence in Brakes Distortion can reduce actual contact Variation in coefficient of friction due to: • Material’s surface property variation • Oxide lubrication
