摘要:Given the current context and the advanced stage of technology, which the braking systems of vehicles have reached, the main purpose of the studies and research is focused on presenting the main tribological aspects that contribute at improving the performance of braking systems, in order to ensure the vehicles’ safety and stability at braking, in any conditions. The performance of the braking system is a key factor for both producers and vehicle passengers, due to safety requirements, everincreasing. Thus, over time, numerous studies and research have been carried on in order to improve the performance of the braking system. In this paper are studied tribological phenomena through those, which contribute to the improvement of the braking system as performance, safety and stability.
