Average and Local Effect of Thermal Fatigue on the Coefficients of the Thermal Expansion of a Complex Continuous Composite Fibre Used for Car Clutch Facing: A Multi-Technique Study
The clutch facing is a complex organic matrix composite in dry clutch systems. When the clutch engages, there is a sliding contact between the clutch facing and the mating surfaces, resulting in temperature increases of up to 300 °C. These thermal cycles activate several mechanisms that can have con...
