A pin-on-disc tribometer study of friction at low contact pressures and sliding speeds for a disc brake material combination

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2019
Disc brake creep groan is a stick-slip phenomenon which results in a low frequency noise in road vehicles that could occur at low vehicle speeds and brake torques. Simulation approaches are used predict the stick-slip phenomena for disc brakes.

Centrifugal regulator for control of deployment rates of deployable elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
The requirements, design, and performance of a centrifugal regulator aimed at limiting deployment rates of deployable elements are discussed. The overall mechanism is comprised of four distinct functional parts in a machined housing: (1) the centrifugal ...

Touching Through: The Puzzle of Mediated Contact

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is natural to think that one person touches another when their bodies make direct contact. However, much interpersonal touch is not like this. We often touch people through things like their clothing. But this raises a puzzle: How can you touch someone without directly touching the surface of their body?

Understanding Literal Compliance in the European Union's Multilevel Fiscal Governance

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Even if member states formally comply with EU law, the ‘ideal type’ of literal compliance, where EU rules are compliantly transposed without customizing their density or restrictiveness, is both rare and improbable. Why do EU member states engage in literal compliance in the ‘least likely’ case of the EU's Fiscal Compact, where customized ...

Dynamic modeling of disc brake contact phenomena [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2011
An interaction between a brake disc and friction material of automotive brake is characterized by a number of braking phenomena. These phenomena are influenced by brake operation conditions (applied pressure, speed, and brake interface temperature) and ...

Control Strategy of the Brake Dynamics for Railway Vehicles Equipped with Anti-Slip-Device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
From the point of view of railway vehicle braking processes it is an important requirement to maintain the roll-ing-motion-state of the wheels, i.e. the macro-sliding-free rolling contact between the vehicle wheels and the rail-head, since in the course ...

A Complexity‐Based Approach to Migration Policy Change: The Case of the German Residence Act

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper adapts and applies existing indicators to measure the complexity of German migration policy over time. Building on recent scholarship that conceptualizes migration policy as multidimensional, I adapt a measurement strategy from the EUPLEX Project to capture three key components of regulatory complexity: structural, linguistic, and ...

Research of the Shifting Characteristic of Planetary Transmission with using Tooth Brake

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2017
The dynamics model of a two-speed planetary transmission is established by using the virtual displacement principle,the dynamic shifting processes comparison and simulation analysis between the planetary transmission using tooth brake and friction brake ...

Preliminary test results of the joint FAA-USAF-NASA runway research program. Part 1: Traction measurements of several runways under wet and dry conditions with a Boeing 727, a diagonal-braked vehicle, and a mu-meter [PDF]

open access: yes
The stopping distance, brake application velocity, and time of brake application were measured for two modern jet transports, along with the NASA diagonal-braked vehicle and the British Mu-Meter on several runways, which when wetted, cover the range of ...
