In this paper, a magnetorheological brake (MRB) model that supports van truck going downhill without interfering with the conventional braking system installed on vehicle is designed and simulated. The simulation demonstrates impact of key variables torque, including operation conditions, MRB tooth tilt angle, rotor thickness, count. As result, results show maximum torque value about 136.41 Nm ...

We present a fully automated raw foundry brake disk visual inspection system in which three different computer vision techniques are used via complete piece rotation. For piece dimensional characterisation purposes, 3D calibration is also fully automated and performed through a new method, which does not require any previous mechanical alignment and leads to more accurate results than conventio...

Brake pads are generally made of asbestos, which is less environmentally friendly and widely available in nature, therefore motorcycle brake that utilize palm frond fibers filled with alumina powder bonded to a polyurethane matrix. This research was conducted at the Laboratory Material Testing Industrial Chemical Technology Polytechnic (PTKI) Medan. Research carried out from February-July 2020,...
