In a disc brake assembly (10) having a brake pad (60) with leading edges (64) and trailing edges (66) whose arcuate length is equal to the product of the inner radius (RMIN) of a wear surface on a rotor (12) and an angle in radians wherein nodal angle (Ap) for a mode of vibration is substantially vibration free. If such arcuate length is selected, the resulting brake pads (60) should operate within the audible range of human beings without producing objectionable noise. |
