motion is converted into waste heat which must be dispersed. Disc brakes are commonly used for vehicle braking but they are applicable to almost any rotating shaft. The brake disc (or rotor in American English) is usually made of cast iron, but in some cases it is made of composites such as reinforced carbon or ceramic matrix composite materials. It is connected to the wheel or to the axle. Brake pads are the friction material, mounted on a device called a brake caliper, is forced mechanically, hydraulically
INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Growth is essential for a healthy sustenance and survival of any firm in this competitive world. There are two growth routes available to any company: - organic and inorganic. The Theory of the Firm’s Growth Penrose states that the growth rate of the firm will decline with its age. Organic growth beyond certain size or age is a big challenge and hence inorganic growth gains significance. Inorganic growth means growing through mergers and acquisitions. The inorganic growth
What makes 3D printing different from the already in use techniques, namely the subtractive processes in machining traditional manufacturing, which may involve to remove the excess of material by processes like drilling or cutting,[9] is the fact that the desired objects are obtained with no additional post processing manufacturing, but by using additive processes. In this way, each layer is deposited individually, respecting certain coordinates that lead to the wanted shape,
