Many systems have vibration properties, modes and non-linear limit cycles, that are significantly affected by environmental properties such as temperature, pressure, rotation speed, ... The classical testing strategy is to select a number of fixed operating conditions, wait for the system to stabilize at each condition and extract the vibration cha...
Since tests only provide measurements at sensors, it is interesting to use models to estimate the response at all degree of freedom, correct measurement errors and possibly allow updating of model parameters. The paper gives an integrated perspective on methods developed by the control and structural dynamics communities and in particular methods s...
To analyze brake squeal, measurements are performed to extract Operational Deflection Shapes (ODS) characteristic of the limit cycle. The advantage of this strategy is that the real system behavior is captured, but measurements suffer from a low spatial distribution and hidden surfaces, so that interpretation is sometimes difficult. It is even more...
In brake FEM, model updating is often needed to improve the model accuracy and well describe problematic phenomena such as the squeal. To avoid performing a full model updating which is often time consuming, the use of the Minimum Dynamic Residual Expansion method is proposed to help building the updating strategy. The procedure proposed in this pa...
In the presence of squeal, Operational Deflection Shapes (ODS) are classically performed to analyze behavior. A simple numeric example is used to show that two real shapes should dominate the response. This justifies an ad-hoc procedure to extract main shapes from the real brake time measurements. The presence of two shapes is confirmed despite var...
Friction pads are made by a recipe of numerous components leading to a heterogeneous material. The originality of this paper is firstly to propose a method leading to identify local mechanical properties of friction a pad, performed at different locations, via an indentation test. Secondly, the mechanical properties obtained for each location are i...
In presence of squeal, Operational Deflection Shapes (ODS) are classically measured to gain understanding of brake behavior. A simple numeric example is analyzed to justify the use of time-frequency analysis and shows that two real shapes should probably dominate the response. Using measurements on a real brake, this expectation is shown to hold ev...
Squeal occurrences are quite common in brakes in production and involve coupling of modes. Detailed understanding of vibration patterns typically requires FEM models updated using test results. The process used at Chassis Brakes International typically starts by updating components so that the main sources of variability are associated with junctio...
To be confident in the prediction capability of a model, verification and validation steps are classically performed. Verification checks that the model is properly solved. Since the model used are fairly standard, this is not issue for brake components. Validation checks the relation between model and experiments on actual structures. Here geometr...
The elastic properties of a friction material play a significant role in the vibro-acoustic noise, vibration and harshness behaviour of braking systems on a structural scale. Common testing, such as pad compressibility testing and modal testing, allows identification of the global static and dynamic elastic properties respectively, which generally...
Scanning laser vibrometer measurements generate detailed maps of modal characteristics in normal or 3D directions. Since many points are measured, individual validation of cannot be performed manually in a reasonable time frame and a notable fraction of measurements is expected to be fairly noisy. The key new notion of the paper is a quantification...
