This document discusses the design and analysis of an inboard braking system for a vehicle. Some key points:
- An inboard braking system locates the brake discs and calipers inside the vehicle's drivetrain, rather than on the wheels, offering advantages like improved weight distribution, reduced unsprung weight, and increased packaging flexibility.
- The document outlines the components of an inboard system, including brake calipers, rotors, lines, and a hydraulic control unit. It also discusses the working mechanism and presents calculations for braking torque and thermal analysis.
- Finite element analysis is conducted on the rotor hub and brake rotor to analyze stress levels, safety factors, deformation, and
