Thermal-structure coupling analysis of disc brake

摘要

A three-dimensional finite element model for thermal-structure coupling analysis of a type of disc brake was established. And using the direct-coupling technique in finite element method, an emergent working condition of braking process was analyzed, getting the distribution laws of the stress field and the temperature field, and the interacting laws between the stress field and the temperature field. The results correspond to the actual application, thus providing guidance for the designing and the fatigue analysis of disc brakes.
