Abstract
The fatigue failure mode of the brake disc is the initiation and expansion of the fatigue crack on the surface of the brake disc until the brake disc brakes. Therefore, considering the fatigue failure mode of the brake disc, the fatigue life of the brake disc is calculated. Firstly, the thermo-mechanical coupling model of the brake disc and pad is established by Abaqus software, so that temperature and stress of the brake disc could be obtained. Then, the surface crack initiation life of the brake disc is calculated by fe-safe software Finally, the fatigue crack growth life of the brake disc is calculated by nCode software. The calculation and analysis results show that the fatigue crack of the brake disc appears on the outer side of the brake disc friction surface under the working condition of this paper. The crack initiation life is that the number of braking is 12830 and the crack propagation life is 695000for the number of braking.
