Description
Summary:This project is continuation of the preliminary investigation study on Light Rail Transit brake pad material done by the previous student. The main objective of the project is to give specific data on the characterization of materials currently used in Light Rail Transit brake pads. This project will study the properties of different products used by two local Light Rail Transit companies namely Proj ek U sahasama Transit Aliran Ringan Automatik Sdn. Bhd (PUTRA) and Sistem Transit Aliran Ringan Sdn. Bhd. (STAR) Both companies now under Syarikat Prasarana Negara Berhad. The specific characterization will be focused on brake pads were its hardness, impact, and microstructure characteristics. Experimental testing will be done according to the standards. The resulting data will create a database to compare between the different products in great detail in terms of its properties and characterizations with the verified location.
