A friend of mine showed me this lengthy article. It mostly applies to 4X4, but it's written fairly generic so the math and physics apply to any vehicle. The author also goes into explaining what many of the terms are and why and how bigger brakes work the way they do.

Good read!

My favorite place to read about brake tech is StopTech's White Papers,
