Introduction
 A brake is a device by means of which artificial frictional resistance is applied to moving machine member, in order to stop the motion of a machine.  The energy absorbed by brakes is dissipated in the form of heat. This heat is dissipated in the surrounding atmosphere to stop the vehicle, so the brake system should have following requirements. The brakes must be strong enough to stop the vehicle with in a minimum distance in an emergency. The driver must have proper control over the vehicle during braking and vehicle must not skid. The brakes must have well anti fade characteristics i.e. their effectiveness should not decrease with constant prolonged application. The brakes should have good anti wear properties.

fundamental of Friction
 Important physical phenomenon related to brake systems is the lateral force between two rubbing surfaces, i.e. the friction force.  In the 1490's, Leonardo da Vinci found that when the normal force on the block increases, the friction force also increases.  the friction force between to rubbing surfaces is independent of the apparent, nominal, contact area.  "Amontons' laws of friction" The force of friction is directly proportional to the applied load.. The force of friction is independent of the apparent area.

These relations between the normal force, FN, and the lateral force, FL, can be mathematically formulated as:

= FL/ FN
Where Qis the coefficient of friction.

Contact situation between two rough surfaces. Only small parts of the surfaces are in real contact with each other, encircled. The area of real contact increases with increased load and with decreased hardness. a) Low load and/or high hardness. b) High load and/or low hardness

AUTOMOTIVE BRAKE SYSTEMS

The Rotor The Brake lining The Hydraulic system The Rotor: as the name is indicating, is rotating with the wheel. It is the first part in the friction couple. The Brake lining: the second, stationary, part of the friction couple. During a brake application, the pad is pressed against the rotor with a hydraulic piston. The Hydraulic system: transfers and amplifies the brake force from the brake pedal to the hydraulic piston pressing the linings against the rotor.

As mentioned in the introduction, a number of different vehicle brake systems has existed over the years. Today two types reign the market, the disc brake and the drum brake. Drum brakes, being an earlier design, dominated until the 1960s in all kinds of vehicles. Today, it is predominantly used in trucks and buses. Just recently, disc brakes have been introduced in heavy vehicles as well and will probably have a large share of this market within a few years.
