Abstract
Testing and development of braking systems belong to significant technical problems solved in automotive industry. The braking systems testing could be carried out directly on a car or using a special testing device — a brake stand. The brake stand developed at the workplace of the University of West Bohemia is introduced in this paper. Its function and usage characterisation are described. Static and modal analyses, which were performed for adjustments of the final design of the brake stand, are presented. The results of the computer modelling are commented and discussed.
