Abstract
Due to the rise in vehicle usage, the number of car accidents and the population of injured users have been increasing by years. In order to reduce these problems, this paper has deeply investigated the current development of the optimization of vehicle braking performance. There are two main focuses in this paper - brake type and material selection. Firstly, in terms of brake type, the comparison of two different types, disc brake and drum brake, it is found that disc brakes are the better one regarding properties of wear rate, braking stability and performance at high temperatures. Moreover, the study on different materials shows ceramic composite materials show better performances than copper fiber materials, which are illustrated in the analysis of braking stability, abrasion resistance, and the impact on the environment. Overall, this study provides the deep understanding of the current automobile brake system, contributing to the future development of new generation of brake system.
