About this document

Brake Design Calculations Overview by Monojit Konar is a document available to read on EtoBox.

1. The document outlines the calculations and assumptions made for determining the braking forces and pressures required to stop a 400kg car traveling at 40km/hr within 5m. 2. Key values calculated include the deceleration rate of 1.26g, front and rear dynamic braking forces of 1351N and 1920N respectively, and master cylinder pressures of 4.22MPa and 6MPa for the front and rear circuits. 3. The pedal force required by the driver is determined to be 162.5N to stop the car within 0.9 seconds.
