Friction-induced vibration characteristics of automotive brake lining pad are investigated on the basis of experimental observations from a pin-on-disk type friction-induced vibration experimental apparatus. The measured responses of the experimental apparatus show limit cycles of quasi-harmonics type and beat phenomena due to the velocity dependence of friction force. To deduce the friction coefficient vs. relative velocity Lienard method is adopted with least square fit. It shows Scurve which characterizes a quasi-harmonic vibration. The calculation of amplitudes and friquencies of the limit cycles is done using slowly changing phase and amplitude method. The theoretical and numerical results show fairly good agreements with those of experiments.
