2. 1. Friction and contact phenomena of disc brakes related to squeal

   Author : Mikael Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Tribology; contact mechanics; squeal; brake pad; disc brake; friction; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

   Abstract : Brake squeal is a sound with a main frequency between 1 and 20 kHz, generated by an oscillation of the components of the brake system. The energy driving the oscillation is supplied by the friction between the disc and the pads. READ MORE

4. 2. Interface modeling - friction and wear

   Author : Anders Söderberg; Sören Andersson; Norbert Huber; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Interfaces; Models; Simulation; Friction; Wear; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : The general trend toward increased use of computer models and simulations during product development calls for accurate and reliable product models. The function of many products relies on contact interfaces between interacting components. Simulating the behavior of such products requires accurate models of both components and interfaces.

5. 3. Tribological nature of squealing disc brakes

   Author : Filip Bergman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

   Abstract : In the stiff competition between car manufacturers, silent and vibration free brakes hasbecome increasingly important. The aim of the present work is to increase the knowledge of the fundamental friction mechanisms operating in brake systems and to study the parameters influencing disc brake squeal generation.

6. 4. Mechanisms and Phenomena in Braking and Gripping

   Author : Lars Hammerström; Staffan Jacobson; XXX XXX; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Materials science; Friction; Brake; Texture; Squeal; Materialvetenskap;

   Abstract : Applications relying on a high static friction include various types of fixtures, couplings, bolted joints, torsion joints, etc. The common characteristic of these applications is that they rely on the friction force to maintain the relative position of two mating surfaces. READ MORE

7. 5. Thermomechanics of block brakes

   Author : Daniel Thuresson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; friction; pin model; contact mechanics; brake; thermo camera; thermomechanical; wear; freight train.; finite element; temperature measurement;

   Abstract : Friction in sliding contacts plays an important role in tribology. Applications can be found in many engineering fields  such as braking of vehicles  in which friction brakes are by far the most common. Thus, an understanding of the mechanisms involved in friction brakes has become more important as the demands on brakes increase. READ MORE
