THERMAL TREATMENT OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM: SIMULATION AND MODELING IN ABAQUS

Mihaela Violeta MUNTEANU, Alexandru ȚILEA

Abstract


This paper investigates the influence of heat treatments on the performance of the braking system, using numerical simulation methods performed in Abaqus. Through a coupled thermomechanical analysis, the temperature and stress distributions in the brake components subjected to intense operating conditions were studied. The developed model allowed the evaluation of the behavior of the heat-treated materials, revealing a reduction in plastic deformations and a more efficient thermal dissipation. The study contributes to the optimization of the geometry and materials used in the braking system components, proposing solutions for increasing safety and durability in automotive and industrial applications.
