Abstract

Based on the conducted analyses, it has been proven that there is no generally accepted method for evaluation of characteristics and output parameters of drum brake mechanisms. Experimental research of the drum brake subsystem with brake fluid pressure in the brake cylinder as input quantity and brake torque as output quantity is presented in the paper. The obtained results show that there is a time delay between the output and input due to the response of the drum brake mechanism. This points to the deficiency of determination of brake performance in time domain, because, in comparison, excitation and response of the system are not adequate. Hence, the dynamic mode is observed in the analysis of the drum brake subsystem. Dynamic analysis determines the behaviour of the system in transient period. With previously known transfer characteristics of a system, its response can be determined in relation to the specified inputs (excitations), which is a good basis for determination of correlation between the results obtained by different methods of identification and under different test conditions.
