This paper reviews numerical methods and analysis procedures used in the study of automotive disc brake. It covers
Finite element Method approaches in the automotive industry, the complex Contact analysis. The advantages and
limitations of each approach will examine. This review can help analysts to choose right methods and make decisions
on new areas of method development. It points out some outstanding issues in modeling and analysis of disc brake
squeal and proposes new conceptual design of the disk braking system. It is found that the complex Contact analysis is
still the approach favored by the automotive industry
