Abstract
The brake disc plays a crucial role to keep the stable braking of a high-speed and heavy-duty disc brake. There is always high temperature, brake vibration, and even serious deformation under braking pressure and frictional resistance. To improve brake performance, this paper aims to find new internal and surface structures of the brake disc. An equivalent moving load (EML) topology optimization method for internal structure is proposed. Topography optimization method oriented to displacement and stress control for surface structure is carried out. Multiobjective functions containing thermal-structural coupled rigidity and natural frequency of the brake disc are established in the internal and surface structure optimizations. Internal and surface structures of the brake disc are optimized, and the mechanic properties of the brake disc are improved. Thermal-structural coupling and modal analyses are verified with high-speed and heavy-duty brake working conditions. The results show that new brake disc structures meet the requirements, and the effectiveness of the proposed EML topology optimization and topography optimization methods has been proved.
