The paper deals with the study of a possible dissipation induced instability in a disc brake system, which leads to a self-excited vibration and thus to a brake squeal. The work describes an experimental estimation of the damping properties of a disc component of the simplified disc brake system. The stability of the system is analyzed numerically using the Finite Element approach and the Complex eigenvalue analysis. From the evolution of real parts of the eigenvalues with friction, the friction threshold value destabilizing the system is defined for the undamped and non-proportionally damped system. From the results, it can be seen how the damping non-proportionality can lead to the dissipation-induced instability of the disc brake system.
