Compression Strength Testing for Automotive Brake Pads Used in Earthquake Energy Dampers

In order to calibrate a friction damper which uses automotive brake pads it is necessary to determine the compression behaviour of the friction material. This paper summarizes the experimental results obtained for a set of automotive brake pads made in Romania. These results are useful in order to d...
