About Brakes Calculator

For engineers designing vehicles with two axles; cars and bikes, Brakes Calculator offers toolboxes for determining the behavior of the braking system at both component and system levels. The application enables you to accurately compute the mechanical, hydraulic, and thermal properties of the braking system of your vehicle. Designed using robust mathematical models, the application facilitates quick parametric iterations that enable the user to perfect component selection and optimize the system’s performance. This application is best-suited for vehicles using disc brakes at either end.
The calculation toolboxes incorporated in the app are listed below:
