Title Friction Material Composites : Materials Perspective Author(s) Sundarkrishnaa, K. L Publication Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2012. Description XXVI, 333 p. 210 illus., 64 illus. in color : online resource Abstract Note Friction Material Composites is the first of the five volumes which strongly educates and updates engineers and other professionals in braking industries, research and test labs. It explains besides the formulation of design processes and its complete manufacturing input. This book gives an idea of mechanisms of friction and how to control them by designing .The book is?? useful for designers?? of automotive, rail and aero industries for designing the brake systems effectively with the integration of friction material composite design which is critical. It clearly?? emphasizes the driving?? safety and how serious designers should?? select the design input. The significance of friction material component like brake pad or a liner as an integral part of the brake system of vehicles is explained.
