The paper describes the development of a wheel mounted disc brake for the power car of a high speed train. The disc design consists of two rings bolted onto the wheel hub, one either side of the wheel. The Finite Element Method was extensively used from the very beginning of the design process. This considerably reduced development time and enabled the successfull design of a disc for an extremely severe duty. Modelling of bulk thermal effects was found to be most effective for shape optimisation and prediction of global disc behaviour, with more sophisticated analyses required to determine more detailed design limits. Results from dynamometer tests and vehicle trials gave good correlation with theoretical results and proved suitability of the design for the required duty. The design is capable of high performance braking of power cars and other vehicles where space around the axle is restricted.
