A computational study on structural and thermal behavior of modified disk brake rotors

The brake mechanism is one of the inevitable and safety-critical components in an automobile. A proper rotor design and superior heat dissipating material provide better performance during the braking mechanism. In this study, modified ventilated disk brake rotor has been developed with curved vents...
