Includes bibliographical references and index.
An introduction to automotive engineering -- Automotive basics and braking system -- Understanding automotive braking system -- Automotive electronics and braking system -- Brakes: mechanical device -- Automotive brakes, safety, and control systems -- Types, parts and application of brake -- Techniques of braking system and wheel cylinder -- Automotive body designs -- Battery construction -- The automotive industry -- Automotive mechanics technician.
"The automotive system will have been a killing instrument if not for the braking system designed to it. Braking systems have been to existence ever since the first design of the automobiles. The system inhibits motion by absorbing energy from a moving system. Over the years, the advancement of technology has brought different designs and types and braking systems to vehicles. The fact is, they are inevitable on vehicles. Well, brake system components vary depending upon the model and types, but the fact is they serve the same purpose and have the same working principle. A braking system can be designed on any mechanical device where motion occurs, not just on automobiles. The system must meet some requirements which will be explained in this article. Some working performance must be meet especially on high-performance vehicles because they are now designed to go very fast. A huge amount of energy or stopping power is required to reduce the speed as well as stopping the vehicles. Most brakes use friction on the two sides of the wheel, the collective press on the wheel converts the kinetic energy of the moving object into heat. For example, regenerative braking turns much of the energy to electrical energy, which may be stored for later use. Eddy current brakes use magnetic fields to turn kinetic energy into electrical current in the brake disc, blade, or ralil, which is converted into heat. The mechanical braking system powers the hand brake or emergency brake. It is the type of braking system in which the brake force applied on the brake pedal is carried to the final brake. drum or disc rotor by the various mechanical linkages like cylindrical rods, fulcrums, springs etc. In order to stop the vehicle. This book continues to provide outstanding coverage of the theory and repair procedures related to automotive brakes. Students, entry-level technicians, and experienced technicians alike will benefit"-- Back cover.
