Identification of the friction linings structure parameters with significant influence on heavy vehicles friction clutches working characteristics

摘要

Friction clutches are still dominantly used in road motor vehicles. Besides the fact that basic concept remains the same, the quality and performance requirements are stronger and stronger. Further development of the friction linings structure and production technology is crucial for fulfilling of those requirements.udThis paper shows the way on which a very complex research (theoretical and experimental) was organized in order to identify the parameters of structure of friction linings having a significant influence on their working characteristics.
