Hi! Just looking at the Abaqus brake disc tutorial (linked at bottom) for a thermal analysis of a disc. The results (Figure 5.1.1-7 in the link) shows how the thermal expansion in the disc causes it to curve towards the outboard side. My results are the same. Could anyone help me understand why...
Hi everyone, so im analysing brake discs and the heat caused under braking. I have made models where both pad and disc are rigid, and where both are deformable. Now, rhe deformable models take a very long time to run. I’m wondering if thermal stress output for the rigid body models (or maybe...
Hi all! I’m trying to model a rigid brake disc with a rigid pad applied. I have made a version with a simple disc and symmetry so only one pad is applied which works (although it takes a very long time due to warning: ‘displacement increment is too big’ if anyone can advice how to precent...
