Simulation on Wear-Resisting of Biomimetic Brake Disc/Pad Coupling System

Abstract:

Based on design dimensions for particular concaves distributed non-smooth surface, the biomimetic brake disc/pad coupling system model is established, and the wear resistant performance of biomimetic non-smooth surface brake disc/pad coupling system is simulated using finite element analysis, then compared with analysis result of smooth model. Result shows the Von Mises stress of biomimetic non-smooth sample is less than that of smooth sample, and the concaves improve the contact stress distribution in the contact area of brake disk and brake pad. Analysis results show that wear resistant performance of biomimetic non-smooth sample is better than that of smooth specimen.
