An Experimental Investigation and Numerical Analysis of the Thermal Behavior of a Clutch System Using the Frictional Facing of Functionally Graded Materials

open access: yesDesigns, 2023
The friction clutch design strongly depends upon the frictional heat generated between contact surfaces during slipping at the beginning of the engagement. Firstly, the frictional heat generated reduces the performance of the clutch system and then leads

The influence of frictional facing thickness on the contact pressure distribution of multi-disc dry clutches [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2018
Frictional heat is generated when the clutch starts to engag. As a result of this operation the surface temperature is increased rapidly due to the difference in speed between the driving and driven parts.

Effects of Automotive Test Parameters on Dry Friction Fiber-Reinforced Clutch Facing Surface Microgeometry and Wear [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers, 2021
Wear and surface microgeometry aspects of fiber-reinforced hybrid composite dry friction clutch facings are revealed in a novel way: after different, real life automotive tests during their lifetime. This study examines and reveals the tribological response of friction material surfaces to real life application conditions with two different facing ...

Investigating suitability of natural fibre-based composite as an alternative to asbestos clutch facing material in dry friction clutch of automobiles

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract This paper aims to study experimentally the suitability of natural fiber based composite as a facing material in single plate dry friction clutch in automobiles by comparing their mechanical properties. The clutch which is an important component of automobile has advanced technologically over the period of time. At the same time,

Nest defence behavioural reaction norms: testing life-history and parental investment theory predictions [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Predation is the primary source of reproductive failure in many avian taxa and nest defence behaviour against predators is hence an important aspect of parental investment. Nest defence is a complex trait that might consistently differ among individuals (

Learning speed is affected by personality and reproductive investment in a songbird. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Individuals from different taxa, including songbirds, differ consistently in behaviour and personality when facing different situations. Although our understanding of animal behaviour has increased, knowledge about between-individual differences in ...

Extreme rainfall events and cooling of sea turtle clutches: Implications in the face of climate warming [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
AbstractUnderstanding how climate change impacts species and ecosystems is integral to conservation. When studying impacts of climate change, warming temperatures are a research focus, with much less attention given to extreme weather events and their impacts.
