Abstract
The objective of this project was to create a physical model to demonstrate the transfer of
forces from the mechanical domain to the hydraulic domain, and back to the mechanical
domain. To do this, a spinning wheel was designed to be stopped using a hand brake
connected hydraulically to a set of calipers and a brake rotor. A wheel on a dead axle was
spun up via a motor and once the wheel was at speed, mechanical force was applied to the
hand brake to bring the wheel to a stop. Calculations for the model were made to
determine flexure, stress concentrations, natural frequency and the mechanical advantage
of the braking system. The calculations showed that under normal operating conditions,
the whole assembly will not have any noticeable flexure, the stress concentrations in the
axle will not lead to catastrophic failure, the natural frequency of the rotating wheel on a
simply supported axle is far above that of the operating frequency, and the hydraulic brake
has ample mechanical advantage to safely bring the wheel to a stop. Once all these
calculations ensured that the model would not fail during operation, a physical model was
constructed. Testing and operation of the physical model showed that the calculations were
accurate.
