R-198 Brake Design and Safety, Second Edition, provides a systems approach to designing safer brakes for cars, light trucks, tractor-trailers, and heavy equipment. This book was written to help engineers to design safer brakes that can be operated and maintained easily. All the necessary analytical tools to study and determine the involvement of brakes in accident causation are included as well as all essential concepts, guidelines, and design checks. Chapters cover: - Elements of Braking Performance, Design, and Safety;
- Design and Analysis of Friction Brakes;
- Thermal Analysis of Friction Brakes; - Analysis of Mechanical Brake Systems; - Analysis of Hydraulic Brake Systems; - Analysis of Air Brake Systems; - Single Vehicle Braking Dynamics; - Braking Dynamics of Combination Vehicles; - Anti-Lock Brake Systems (ABS); - Analysis of Brake Failure. |
