Friction and wear Simulink model for brake pad application

1. To predict friction and wear during braking application based on material formulation?
2. Is there any developed model previously studied. Please share any research articles and textbooks related to this topic.

Hi @Praveenkumar B,

Before we proceed, please provide a summary of your findings based on your search on ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, IEEE Xplore, Taylor & Francis Online, and Wiley Online Library. In the summary, you should address the following points:

1. Unanswered questions,
2. Methodological limitations,
3. Emerging trends.

These aspects require further investigation in the field of brake pad research.

Take a look at the Simscape Driveline Disc Brake block

This example in PDE Toolbox will help you see how to obtain a temperature distribution which is related to wear: Thermal Analysis of Disc Brake
