Memorial de cálculo de um sistema de freio de um veículo Baja SAE

Abstract

The Baja SAE project involves the study and construction of an off-road prototype, in which teams from various higher education institutions of engineering courses compete in static and dynamic events. According to the competition regulations, the braking system must ensure the locking of all four wheels and bring the vehicle to a complete stop from its maximum speed. The brake system design is based on the principles of physics, including Newton's laws and Pascal's principle. To properly size a brake system for Baja-style off-road vehicles, ensuring effectiveness and safety while avoiding both under-sizing and over-sizing, a methodology for preparing the brake system calculation report was developed. This approach will provide future team members with detailed and specific material to guide the construction of future vehicles.
