The document outlines the structure and contents of a symposium presentation for a Master's project on mechanical design engineering. The presentation will include an introduction on the project concept, a literature review summarizing several relevant research papers and identifying gaps, the objectives and methodology, theoretical/numerical investigations, experimental work and results, conclusions, and a discussion of potential publications. The project involves analyzing the thermal performance of ceramic-silicon carbide brake disks through numerical modeling and experimental testing to evaluate their potential for high-performance applications.
