Although brake squeal is a significant noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) issue which incurs significant cost in the automotive industry, its prediction is still difficult. This is because brake squeal is essentially a nonlinear phenomenon and traditional complex eigenvalue analysis (CEA) is a linear method. In addition, there are many uncertainties in a brake system such as material properties, operating and contact conditions which cannot be determined accurately with confidence. Here, the influence of uncertainties in contact conditions on the instability of an analytical model consisting of 3x3 coupled oscillators in point contact with a sliding rigid plate is analysed. The uncertainties in contact conditions considered are: percentage of contact, stiffness and friction laws for the contact (Amonton-Coulomb, relative velocity dependent and LuGre law). The instability is analysed in the frequency domain by randomising these three uncertainty parameters. The results will be discussed with a view to applying this approach to the analysis of the squeal propensity for a full brake system.
