Wear simulation and its effect on contact pressure distribution and squeal of a disc brake

In the past, wear at the disc and pads interface of disc brakes has rarely been accounted for in a 3-dimensional finite element (FE) model for studying brake squeal. Thus, its effect on disc brake squeal is only possible to investigate through experimental methods. In the present paper, wear over...

The surface topographies of two brand new pairs of brake pads are measured. The contact tests using pressure-indicating films are carried out in order to capture static pressure distributions.

The paper also investigates squeal generation in the above braking applications using complex eigenvalue analysis that is available in a commercial software package.
