Abstract

Squeal noise is generated by an unstable friction-induced vibration in a mechanical structure with friction load. Nonlinear mechanisms like sprag-slip, stick-slip, and negative frictions damping are believed in contributing to generate this kind of noise. However, the prediction of its occurrence still counts on the analysis of complex-linear eigenvalue, which may underpredict the number of unstable vibration modes. The structure also is found to seem to generate squeal noise randomly. In this paper, nonlinear analysis of a squeal noise is investigated. The study is conducted numerically by a simple two-degree of freedom model and an experimental observation using a circular and slider plate with a friction contact interface. The friction force is modeled as a function cubic nonlinear contact stiffness and nonlinear negative velocity function of friction coefficient. It is found that mode coupling instability will occur if the normal contact stiffness and friction coefficient exceed the bifurcation point to generate a couple-complex conjugate eigenvalue and eigenvector. However, when the system is stated linearly stable, instability still can appear because of increasing the nonlinear contact stiffness and coefficient of friction. The instability is affected significantly by relative velocity and pressing force. Both parameters dynamically change depending on the vibration response of the structure. Furthermore, it is also found the stick-slip phenomenon interacted with mode coupling instability to generate squeal noise. It contributes to supply energy to increase the response caused by instability of mode coupling.
