There are many elasto-mechanical systems that involve two components in moving contact where large-amplitude vibration and noise can be excited. This paper models the vibration and dynamic instability of a car disc brake as a moving load problem in which one component (the disc) is amenable to analytical treatment while the other component (the pads, calliper and mounting) has to be dealt with by the finite element method. A method is presented for solving the dynamic instability of the car disc brake as a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. The same approach can tackle other moving load problems.
