Analysis and optimisation of disc brake calipers

Sergent, Nicolas (Cranfield University, 2010)

Disc brake calipers are subjected to complex mechanical loading and interaction of individual components in a typical brake assembly makes design improvement very challenging. To analyse caliper behaviour, complex Finite ...
CFD and experimental study of heat dissipation from an anti-coning, pin vented, inboard mounted brake disc

Mingozzi, Filippo; Verdin, Patrick G.; Gucci, Lorenzo; Tirovic, Marko (Sage, 2022-09-29)

Anti-coning brake discs are known for their superior NVH characteristics when compared to other disc designs, but also for poorer heat dissipation. Cooling characteristics of such a disc design are studied numerically and ...
Design synthesis and structural optimisation of a lightweight, monobloc cast iron brake disc with fingered hub

Topouris, Stergios; Tirovic, Marko (Taylor and Francis, 2018-11-23)

This article focuses on generating a monobloc fingered hub (top-hat) disc design, aiming at reducing disc mass but maintaining rotor thermal capacity, while also improving heat dissipation characteristics. The analyses and ...
Experimental investigation of the cooling characteristics of a monobloc cast iron brake disc with fingered hub

Tirovic, Marko; Topouris, Stergios; Sherwood, Glenn (SAGE, 2019-05-02)

The paper compares heat dissipation characteristics of two interchangeable ventilated brake discs, a standard solid hub and a newly developed fingered hub version, both single piece cast designs. The tests were conducted ...
Fibre Bragg grating sensors for the analysis of pressure distribution at a disc brake/pad interface

Major, B. T.; Tiwari, Divya; Correia, Ricardo; James, Stephen W.; Tirovic, Marko; Tatam, James P. (SPIE, 2017-04-24)

The use of optical fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) to monitor the Interface Pressure Distribution (IPD) on an automotive disc brake pad under a variety of loading conditions is studied. The results demonstrate successful strain ...
Heat dissipation from a stationary brake disc, Part 1: Analytical modelling and experimental investigations

Stevens, Kevin; Tirovic, Marko (SAGE, 2017-05-18)

The main aim of the research is to support the development of the commercial vehicle electric parking brake. Though nowadays widely used on passenger cars, electric parking brake applications on commercial vehicles present ...
Heat dissipation from a stationary brake disc, Part 2: CFD modelling and experimental validations

Tirovic, Marko; Stevens, Kevin (SAGE, 2017-05-18)

Following from the analytical modelling presented in Part 1, this paper details a comprehensive computational fluid dynamics modelling of the three-dimensional flow field around, and heat dissipation from, a stationary ...
Heat dissipation from stationary passenger car brake discs

Topouris, Stergios; Stamenković, Dragan; Olphe-Galliard, Michel; Popović, Vladimir; Tirovic, Marko (University of Ljubljana - Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, 2020-01-31)

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the heat dissipation from stationary brake discs concentrated on four disc designs: a ventilated disc with radial vanes, two types of ventilated discs with curved vanes ...
An investigation into heat dissipation from a stationary commercial vehicle disc brake in parked conditions.

Stevens, Kevin (Cranfield UniversitySOE, 2013-11)

Detailed understanding of heat dissipation from a stationary disc brake is of considerable importance for vehicle safety. This is essential for both park braking on inclines and for preventing brake fluid boiling in ...
Methodology for predicting brake squeal propensity using complex eigenvalue analysis, including thermo-mechanical effects

Tirovic, Marko; Vianello, Michele; Bannister, Paul (Sage, 2018-04-12)

With brake squeal being the most prevalent noise vibration and harshness issue in modern vehicles, this paper presents an improved methodology for brake squeal propensity prediction at the design stage. The research ...
Multi-scale, electro-thermal model of NMC battery cell

Morganti, M. V.; Longo, Stefano; Tirovic, Marko; Blaise, C. Y.; Forostovsky, G. (IEEE, 2019-09-23)

Battery models often either fail to deliver a complete picture of the physical phenomena occurring in the cell or fail to minimize computational effort. So far, the demand for a detailed internal thermal model of battery ...
Optimisation of convective heat dissipation from ventilated brake discs

Galindo-Lopez, Carlos Hannover (Cranfield University, 2009-05)

Fast heat dissipation from brake discs is sought in current vehicles, where high power braking duties demand harmonic combination of strength, (undamped) disc mass and cooling abilities for a wide speed range. This work ...
Thermal-managed oriented, multi-domain battery modelling and experimental validation.

Morganti, Manlio Valerio (Cranfield UniversitySATM, 2019-12)

A cross-domain battery simulation methodology, that could allow, a more streamlined design process, was needed. Acausal, object-oriented, multi-domain modelling strategies are becoming more and more common, beside ...
Video re-sampling and content re-targeting for realistic driving incident simulation

Heras, Alejo M.; Breckon, Toby P.; Tirovic, Marko (2011-11-17)

We present a video generation and visualization system for integration into a driving incident simulator. We combine the use of video re-sampling, target tracking and object segmentation for content re-targeting to ...
