FE Analysis of Low-frequency Disc Brake Squeal (In Case of Floating Type Caliper)

The FE analysis is one of approach to develop the reduction method for brake squeal.

This study shows the results of applying the FE analysis method, developed for disc brake with opposed piston type caliper shown in reference [1] and [2], to the analysis of low frequency disc brake squeal of floating type caliper.

The FE analysis results are confirmed with the vibration mode during squeal generation measured by experiment. And some effective factors to the brake squeal are clear on floating type caliper by FE analysis.
