“…The objective of this study was to collect information regarding the design of an FWUAV and its disc brake, as well as validation approaches for both transient structural and thermal computations. Relevant works are as follows: Using computational transient structural analysis, G. R. Kumar et al [1] in 2020 conducted comparative research on rotating discs made from a variety of lightweight composite materials. With the aid of the ANSYS Tool, the polymer matrix composites (PMC) were primarily examined at various rotational speeds.…”

“…After discovering that the disc brake arrangement of UAVs is graphically comparable to the POD setup, the authors determined to enforce POD-based validations for implemented transient structural simulations. Insight into the typical platform layout of this massive dataset can be gleaned from a survey of the relevant literature [1,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…Figure 5 shows a consolidated model of the pin-on-disc test specimen created with the ANSYS Composite Preprocessor tool. The tiny red solid on top was called a pin, and the blue-grey solid on the bottom was called a disc [1,14,[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. In the FEA mathematical modeling of boundary value problems, boundary conditions and governing equations play a key role.…”

“…The wheel hub has been fitted with rotors. By applying force through the rudder pedals to the brakes, the kinetic energy might be converted into thermal energy [1]. Due to the high likelihood of failure induced by friction, it is anticipated that increased-resisting materials will deposit between the internal frictional connections of the UAV's disc brake.…”

In recent years, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has increased significantly. Asymmetrical factors, or frictional studies on the disc brake of UAVs, are one of the safety considerations taken into consideration during the design process because UAVs and their components have been built with the best safety in mind. This study focuses on choosing the optimal material for a UAV’s disc brake by using transient structural and thermal models. In order to compare the asymmetry-based frictional force produced by the two ways; the processes used in the transient simulation are validated using pin-on-disc (POD) testing. The foundation for this validation investigation is a metal matrix composite made of an aluminum alloy, and the basis tool is an ASTM G99-based computational test specimen. Steel-EN24 and carbon ceramic matrix composites testing are expanded using the same POD tests. A range of 3 percent to 8 percent error rates is found. As a result, the calculation techniques are applied to the UAV’s disc brake after they have proven to be trustworthy. This fixed-wing UAV’s extensions have a 5 kg payload capacity. The weight, avionics components, tire dimensions, and disc brake dimensions of the other UAV design parts are calculated using analytical formulas. The final designs are made using CATIA as a result. The grid convergence experiment is organized using a traditional finite element analysis tool. Finally, at its maximum rotational speed, a UAV’s disc brake is put through asymmetrical friction testing based on structural and thermal consequences. The correct materials for critical applications, such as carbon fiber-woven-wet-based reinforced polymer and Kevlar unidirectional-49-based reinforced polymer composites for changing rotating speeds, have now been made possible by fixed-wing UAVs.

“…Three materials are chosen for aforesaid advanced vehicles' disc brakes, which have undergone experimental testing and CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) simulation to capture deformation and stress results. Two symmetrical alloys (Steel EN19, Steel EN 24) are already in use, and one asymmetrical composite material (carbon ceramic matrix composite (CCMC)) is planned to be used [1][2][3][4] in aircraft disc brakes. Automotive disc brake systems will test stainless steel, titanium alloy, tungsten carbide, GFRP, and CFRP.…”

Finite element analyses (FEA) are flexible and advanced approaches, which are utilized to address difficult problems of aerospace materials that exhibit both structural symmetrical and structural asymmetrical characteristics. Frictional behavior effects are used as a crucial element in this multidisciplinary study, and other structural, thermal properties are computed using FEA. Primary lightweight materials such as glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP), carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), kevlar fiber reinforced polymer (KFRP), titanium alloy, tungsten carbide, steel alloys, and advanced lightweight materials, such as silicon carbide (SiC) mixer, based on aforesaid materials underwent comprehensive investigations on aircraft disc brake, two-wheeler disc brake, and ASTM general rotating test specimen (G-99). Standard boundary conditions, computational sensitivity tests, and theoretical validations were conducted because the working nature of FEA may impair output dependability. First, FEA calculations were performed on a standard rotating disc component with two separate material families at various rotational velocities such as 400 RPM, 500 RPM, 600 RPM, 800 RPM, and 10 N of external frictional force. Via tribological experiments, frictional force and deformation of FEA outcomes were validated; the experimental outcomes serve as important boundary conditions for real-time simulations. Second, verified FEA was extended to complicated real-time applications such as aircraft disc brakes and automobile disc brakes. This work confirms that composite materials possess superior properties to conventional alloys for aircraft and vehicle disc brakes.
