IMPROVING BRAKE EFFICIENCY IN CARS WITHOUT CHANGING TYRES Paul Danny Anandan B.E Medway School Of Engineering‚ University Of Greenwich PREVIOUS TRACK RECORD AND PROJECT BACKGROUND INTRODUCTION Since 1918 the revolution in brake technology has started from the invention of four-wheel hydraulic brake systems by Malcolm Loughead. The hydraulic brakes have replaced mechanical brakes which were in use at that time. The mechanical brakes had several disadvantages. It had a difficulty to brake all the wheels

and used later to power the motor whenever the vehicle is using its electric power source. Conventional Braking Systems In braking systems on conventional vehicles‚ friction is used to counteract the forward momentum of a moving vehicle. As the brake pads rub against the wheels or a disc that is connected to the axles‚ excessive heat energy is created. This heat energy dissipates into the air‚ wasting as much as 30 percent of the vehicle’s generated power. Over time‚ this cycle of friction and

LITERATURE REVIEW For understanding of the concept of ceramic disc brakes and their advantages‚ we should follow a path‚ which helps us. That path should cover first the importance of the braking systems in our daily life. Then we should analyze the brake systems used in automobiles and differences between them. Without analyzing these concepts‚ we will not be able to see how a braking system works‚ and which differences the ceramic brakes bring and we will not be able to see the advantages of it. Then

Variables Independent Variable The independent variable is the height of the ramp Dependant Variable The dependant variable is the time it takes for the car to travel down the ramp‚ with that I will calculate the speed. Control Variable The control variables are the same person timing and releasing the car‚ same type of car‚ same ramp‚ same starting position and so on.

Exericise 1 In function “void Exercise_One()”‚ the third parameter “0xfe” of “cbDout(BOARD_NUM_0‚FIRSTPORTA‚0xfe)” is used to controlled “on-and-off” status of each coils; Specifically‚ the binary value of second digit of the hexadecimal number indicates that status‚ “1” for “off” while “0” for “on”; For example‚ “e” in binary is 1110‚ coil A is turned on (controlling coil A to D from the most right bit to most left). So to turn on coil C only‚ a binary number 1011 (in hexadecimal “b”) is needed

Vandivier would be morally responsible for any "accidents" that resulted when pilots tested the brake. I believe that because he knew of the serious problems that could result in this product being released to the Air Force. When Mr. Lawson approached Mr. Vandivier with the issue in the very beginning‚ it was Mr. Vandivier’s choice to tell the Goodrich members of the error that he had made in creating the brakes. It was also Goodrich’s responsibility to not take part in shutting down the experiment when

Putting the Brakes on Teenage Driving After listening to this speech I felt that the speaker was very persuasive and really cared about the topic she was speaking on. I felt that her specific purpose statement was when she stated‚ “There are too many motor vehicle accidents‚ deaths‚ and injuries involving teenage drivers”. I think that this speech was a question of value seeing that she was talking about teenage lives. The speaker used multiple methods of persuasion to get her audience
