IMPORTANCE• Disc brakes are simple and reliable in

adventures cycling• Considered as most powerful brakes in

luxury and modern vehicles• Extensive studies on analysis and

investigation of disc brake vibration on the possibilities of eliminating brake vibration to improve vehicle users’ comfort.

INTRODUCTION

• Common place on vehicles since 1960• Extensively uses in modern vehicles• Disc brakes uses friction to create braking power• Create braking power by forcing flat friction pads

against the sides of the rotating disc• Disc brake assemblies consists of a caliper, brake pads

and a rotor

INTRODUCTION

Higher applied forces can be used in disc brakes than in drum brakes, because the design of the rotor is stronger than the design of the drum.

Disc versus drum brakes

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEEDING

• Vehicle speed :10.75, 17, 20.8 km/hr• Brake pressure : 2.5 to 20 bar• Temperature : 50 °C TO 70 °C

VIBRATION FREQUENCY ANALYSIS• Time domain signal• Frequency domain signal• Fourier analysis• Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) using MATLAB to

produce Power Spectrum Density (PSD)


RESULTS




STUDY ON RESULTS

• 27 tests• Peaks in the vibration frequencies are

dominated at 4.4 kHz• Depends on sliding speed• Independent on frequency content

INFLUENCE OF APPLIED LOAD VARIATIONS

• Maximum vibration amplitude occurs at a frequency of approximately 4.4 kHz

• High vibration at lower pressure• When pressure increases the vibration level

decreases

EFFECT OF VEHICLE SPEED


EFFECT OF VEHICLE SPEED

• Increase of sliding speed decreases the vibration amplitude

• So automotive vibration frequently occurs at low velocity

• Vibration amplitude decreases linearly with disk velocity up to a minimum value and then stays approximately constant

CONCLUSION• Dynamometer is designed for the purpose of

measurement of brake vibration generated by friction• The peak value of vibration amplitude is dominant at

frequency of 4.4 kHz• Vibration level decreases with increases of sliding speed• Vibration level decreases with increases of applied

pressure
