Comparison between some Simulation Methods Regarding the Thermal Stress on Disc Brake

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper proposes a comparison between two simulation methods of disc brake thermal regime which cause thermal stress. Those methods are the finite element analyses and the thermal image processing using grey level (or the luminosity variation) of disc brake emissivity. The authors consider that the variation of thermal image luminosity, images taken of a disc brake during intensive braking, is similar to one of the finite element analyses modeling the same conditions as the one of the experiment.
