The operational deflection shapes were used to identify the mode of vibration for the brake shoes in drum brake squeal. The measurement of the operational deflection shapes of the brake shoes during drum brake squeal, which was in the torsional mode, was similar to that of the modes obtained from the experimental modal analysis of the brake shoes under the in-contact static condition. A two-degree-of-freedom model was developed on the basis of the experimental modal analysis data within the limited bandwidth of the squeal frequency of 1850 Hz. In this work, the operational deflection shape was used for determination of a structural dynamic modification to be carried out on the brake shoes in order to maximize the damping of the torsional mode as a way to improve the stability of the system. The lumped-parameter model was then used to assess the effect of the structural dynamic modification on the squeal based on the transient analysis, which showed a similar trend and can assist brake designers in evaluating the critical parameter to obtain a squeal-free drum brake design.
