General Motors and LMS team up to develop a new prediction methodology for solving brake squeal problems

30 September 2004

General Motors, together with LMS, developed a new process that effectively combines advanced testing with systematically correlated static and dynamic simulations to identify and help fix brake squeal early in the design process. GM, one of the world’s largest vehicle manufacturers, validated this method by characterizing a 13kHz intermittent squeal, and has since used it on several current development programs. The ability to measure and model brake squeal dynamics is a dramatic step forward in our noise and vibration reduction efforts. This has generated substantial savings in engineering cost and development lead-time.
