Abstract

Brake squeal has always been a major NVH problem to many car makers due to significant number of warranty claims. Brake squeal is a high frequency noise (above 1 kHz) emanating from car disc brakes that get excited due to one or more mechanisms such as mode coupling, stick-slip, hammering and sprag-slip. This paper attempts to investigate the effects of brake pad surface topography on squeal generation. Two pairs of a non-asbestos organic (NAO) brake pad will be tested on a brake dynamometer test rig. Surface topography of the brake pad will be analyzed through microscopic techniques using energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and optical microscope.
