The simulation calculation on the temperature field of the disc brake system on high-speed trains under the working condition of constant speed at 50Km/h is made. A steady-state calculation model is established according to the actual geometric size of a brake disc and a brake pad, and the analog calculation and simulation on the temperature field of the brake disc and the brake pad by using the large-scale nonlinear finite element software ABAQUS are carried out. The distribution rules of the temperature field of the brake disc and the brake pad under the working condition of constant speed are made known. The surface temperature of the brake disc at friction radius is the highest, with a band distribution for temperature. There exists a temperature flex point in the direction of thickness, of which the thickness occupies 15% of that of the brake disc; due to the small volume of the brake pad, the temperature gradient of the whole brake pad is not sharp, and larger temperature gradient occurs only on the contact surface.

In this research, the tribological and dynamical characteristics of a brake pad with multiple blocks are investigated using experimental and numerical methods. A dynamometer with a multiblock brake pad configuration on a brake disc is developed and a series of drag-type tests are conducted to study the brake squeal and wear behavior of a high-speed train brake system. Finite element analysis is performed to derive physical explanations for the observed experimental phenomena. The experimental and numerical results show that the rotational speed and braking force have important influences on the brake squeal; the trends of the multiblock and single-block systems are different. In the multiblock brake pad, the different blocks exhibit significantly different magnitudes of contact stresses and vibration accelerations. The blocks located in the inner and outer rings have higher vibration acceleration amplitudes and stronger vibration energies than the blocks located in the middle ring.

The article has analyzed the changes of temperature of different materials of the spindle, and considered 170SD30 Ceramic Motorized Spindle and the same model Metal Motorized Spindle as the research objects, analyzed the inside heat source and heat transfer mechanism of the high-speed motorized spindle; used finite element software to set up the model of the motorized spindle, and did simulation and analysis. Verified by simulation, heat transfer rate of ceramic materials is slower than the metallic materials, in actual operation of the process, due to different materials have different heat transfer rate, so the temperature distribution of the different materials of motorized spindle are different. This conclusion provides the basis to solve motorized spindle temperature field distribution.

Brakes are the most important component of any automobile. Brakes provide the ability to reduce or bring automobile to a complete stop. The process of braking is usually achieved by applying pressure to the brake discs. The main objective of this research paper is to propose an appropriate design and to perform analysis of a suitable brake rotor to enhance the performance of the high-speed car. The design of the brake disc is modelled using Solid works and the analysis is carried out using Ansys software. The analysis has been conducted by considering stainless steel and grey cast iron using same brake rotor design so that optimal choice of brake disc can be considered. The analysis considered involves static structural analysis and steady state thermal analysis considering specific parameters on brake rotor to increase the life of brake rotor. From the analysis it is found that the performance and life of disc brake depends upon heat dissipation. From the analysis results it can be concluded that grey cast iron has performed better as compared to stainless steel as this material has anti-fade properties which improves the life of the brake rotor.

Abstract The dynamics of a nonlinear car disc brake model is investigated and compared with a simplified linear model. The rotating brake disc is approximated by a rotating ring. The brake pad is modeled as a point mass which is in contact with the rotating ring and visco-elastically suspended in axial and circumferential direction. The stability analysis for the nonlinear model is performed by a numerical evaluation of the top Lyapunov-exponent. Several parameter studies for the nonlinear model are discussed. It is shown that dynamic instabilities of the nonlinear model are estimated at subcritical rotating speeds lower than 10% of the critical speed. Further, the sensitivity of the nonlinear model to the initial conditions and the stiffness ratios is demonstrated.

Abstract The braking performance of the vehicle directly affects the driving safety. Because of the different number of brake pistons and the wear of the brake pads, the distribution of braking pressure will be uneven, which will affect the distribution of temperature field and stress field during braking, then affect the thermal fatigue life of brake discs. Therefore, in this paper, the static tensile and compressive tests of gray cast iron HT200 samples cut from vehicle brake discs are carried out at −25°C, room temperature (25°C) and 500°C, and the stress-strain curves are analyzed to obtain mechanical properties such as strength limit, elastic modulus and so on at the temperature. Based on these parameters, the finite element software ABAQUS is used to simulate the single emergency braking condition. The thermal-structural coupling simulation of brake disc is carried out to study the influences of uneven brake pressure distribution on the temperature and stress fields of brake disc, which lays a foundation for the thermal fatigue life evaluation of brake disc.

For the serious and uneven wear of the brake pad in the high-power disc brake during braking, the dynamic variation of the brake disc and the brake pad interface variable is considered, the wear calculation model is established based on the friction and wear mechanism, and the wear depth and volume of the brake pad can be calculated by equations. A finite element model of the brake disc and the brake pad is established by DEFORM software which can analyze wear of the brake pad directly. The variation trend of wear during braking is studied, and influences of braking load and initial braking speed on the wear are analyzed. The results show that the amount of the wear increases rapidly in the early wear stage of braking, and it becomes slow in the later stage; the wear of the brake pad is serious at the friction inlet and outlet, and the middle area of the brake pad is lightly worn; heavy braking load and high initial braking speed can exacerbate the wear of the brake pad.

In Chinese transmission towers, all the steels are equilateral angle, most of the diagonal and secondary members are in one-sided bolt connection working condition, so the force is eccentric. When the length within a certain range, relative to the equilateral angle, non-equilateral angle steel under this working condition to be able to withstand a larger load, and the ability to cross-sectional area smaller, reducing the weight of the whole base tower. In order to solve the above problems, through research and analysis of large-scale finite element software ANSYS diagonal and secondary members for transmission tower angle steel model length which can be equilateral angle replaced non-equilateral angle steel. Eventually found that when the length is small long side is connected to non-equilateral angle steel are available, and when the length is bigger short side is connected to non-equilateral angle steel are available.

Utilizing ABAQUS finite element software, the study established the relationship between a brake pad structure and distributions of temperature and thermal stress on brake disc. By introducing radial structure factor and circular structure factor concepts, the research characterized the effect of friction block radial and circumferential arrangement on temperature field of the brake disc. A method was proposed for improving heat flow distribution of the brake disc through optimizing the position of the friction block of the brake pad. Structure optimization was conducted on brake pads composed of 5 or 7 circular friction blocks. The result shows that, with the same overall contact area of friction pair, an appropriate brake pad structure can make the friction energy distribute evenly and therefore lowers peak temperature and stress of the brake disc. Compared with a brake pad of 7 friction blocks, an optimized brake pad of 5 friction blocks lowered the peak temperature of the corresponding brake disc by 4.9% and reduced the highest stress by 10.7%.
