Maintaining an even temperature along the bend line is critical. Inconsistent heating results in varying material properties, ...

Hydraulic brake systems convert mechanical energy (the spinning wheels) into heat energy by transforming and amplifying the force exerted on the brake pedal. The brake pedal acts like a lever. Along ...

While one may offer superior heat transfer—and therefore better braking performance—it may also be noisier and more prone to depositing unsightly brake dust on the wheel rims. Another friction ...

The shift in inertia under braking creates heat. Every conventional braking system does this; when a brake caliper clamps down on a brake disc, the friction between the two surfaces is what slows the ...
