The objectives of this third edition of an SAE classic title are to provide readers with the basic theoretical fundamentals and analytical tools necessary to design braking systems.
for passenger vehicles and trucks that comply with safety standards, minimize consumer complaints, and perform safely and efficiently before and while electronic brake controls become active.
Brake Design and Safety, Second Edition, provides a systems approach to designing safer brakes for cars, light trucks, tractor-trailers, and heavy equipment.
m 520 8 This book was written to help engineers to design safer brakes that can be operated and maintained easily.
All the necessary analytical tools to study and determine the involvement of brakes in accident causation are included as well as all essential concepts, guidelines, and design checks.
The second edition has been revised and updated to include newer brake technology, including anti-lock braking systems (ABS), braking by wire, and the mechanical and thermal analysis of disk brakes.
The objectives of this third edition of an SAE classic title are to provide readers with the basic theoretical fundamentals and analytical tools necessary to design braking systems for passenger vehicles and trucks that comply with safety standards, minimize consumer complaints, and perform safely and efficiently before and while electronic brake controls become active.
