Brake disk BREMBO 3D model

A brake disc is the central element of a vehicle's braking system, providing a surface for friction between the brake pads and rotating disk during braking. The energy conservation principle dictates that energy transforms rather than disappears; thus, the kinetic energy of the spinning disc is converted to thermal energy, heating up the brake disc. By pressing the brake pads against the disc, friction force halts rotation. Using this mechanism, a composite brake disc can efficiently stop a vehicle's motion. For instance, Blender3D 2.79 features advanced brake disc models in its simulations, ensuring accurate representation and behavior of such components in virtual scenarios.
