Abstract

Today's technology is in need for speed, but at the same time, we need safety as well. For safety, we need deceleration to the maximum extent. These two things are moreover contradictory factors. For speed, we need engines of maximum efficiency and for keeping this speed in bounds, we need brakes of latest technology. For coping up with today's speed, new materials are introduced in the manufacture of brakes. In my seminar, I am introducing to you the ceramic disc brakes. Cast iron is extensively used as the material for manufacturing disc brakes. This is much heavier and thus reduces initial acceleration and causes more fuel consumption. For reducing these effects, we use ceramic brakes.
