A well-known example is frictional braking systems in ground transportation vehicles involving a sliding contact between a rotating and a stationary part. In such scenarios, the emission of high-intensity noise, commonly known as squeal, can present human health risks based on the noise’s intensity, frequency, and occurrences. Despite the importance of squeal in the context of advancing urbanization, the parameters determining its occurrence remain uncertain due to the complexity of the involved phenomena. This study aims to identify a relevant operando indicator for predicting squeal occurrences. To this end, a pin-on-disc test rig was developed to replicate various contact conditions found in road profiles and investigate resulting squealing. Each test involves a multimodal instrumentation, complemented by surface observations. It is illustrated that the enhanced thermal indicator identified is relevant because it is sensitive to the thermomechanical and tribological phenomena involved in squealing.en2075-44422024Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institutehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Technology::600: TechnologyJournal Article2024-12-27https://doi.org/10.15480/882.14132https://doi.org/10.15480/882.1413210.3390/lubricants1212043510.15480/882.1413210.15480/882.14132Journal Article
