PERFORMANCE AND COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF AIR DISC BRAKES AND AIR DRUM BRAKES FOR TRUCK SEMI-TRAILERS IN DIFFERENT ROAD AND SPEED CONDITIONS

Performance and cost-effectiveness of air disc brakes and air drum brakes for truck semi-trailers in different road and speed conditions

This study uses TruckSimTM to model disc brakes and drum brakes on a fully loaded truck semi-trailer to study the performance Window Hardware of each brake type as downgrades and speeds vary.The brake performance is measured based on braking distance.A simplified economic comparison based on life cycle cost analysis to determine which road and vehi

Stagnation point flow of hybrid nanofluid flow passing over a rotating sphere subjected to thermophoretic diffusion and thermal radiation

Abstract The effects of thermal radiation and thermophoretic particles deposition (TPD) on the hybrid nanofluid (HNF) flow across a circling sphere have momentous roles in research and engineering.Such as electrical devices, projectiles, thermal conveyance, sheet production, renewable energy, and nuclear-powered plants.Therefore, the current study
