Holographic analysis of vibrations on squealing drum brake systems is a useful method to localize vibration sources on drum brake components. The results described in this paper are obtained by ...

Drum brakes, shown in Figure 14-5, are the oldest type of brakes still on the road. Their main advantage is that they require less hydraulic pressure to stop your vehicle because the brake shoes tend ...

The combination of vibrational analysis, empirical testing, and consistent test methodology led to the understanding and elimination of low frequency drum brake noise. Each of the above items served ...

The focus on the new stopping distance standards might suggest that regulations are what drive research and development in the brake drum and rotor industry, but that is only a part of the story.

Your car's brake system is one of its most critical components. It should come as no surprise that the brake system is responsible for stopping your vehicle and keeping it stationary as long as your ...
