Friction in landing gear braking systems

碳-碳复合材料已在航空航天和汽车领域的摩擦制动应用中得到应用。摩擦性能在很大程度上取决于部件设计、材料特性和工业过程参数的控制。材料开发和制造过程控制对于实现增强和更一致的制动性能都很重要。为了优化制动系统的设计，需要更深入地了解材料特性的量化以及摩擦过程中的物理过程。先进的物理学和材料建模概念将被用作在高性能计算机系统上进行模拟的工具。

Carbon-Carbon composites have been deployed in friction braking applications in both Aerospace and Automotive sectors. Friction performance is highly dependent on component design in conjunction with material properties and the control of industrial process parameters. Material development and manufacturing process control are both important for achieving enhanced and more consistent brake performance. A deeper understanding of the quantification of material properties together with the physical processes during friction is required to optimise the design of the braking system. Advanced physics and material modelling concepts will be used as an instrument for the simulations, on high-performance computer systems.
