Abstract
A device () and a method are provided for determining the oscillatory behavior of a brake lining () for a motor vehicle. The device () has a mounting device () for mounting a brake lining () and a securing device () for securing a brake disk model () assigned to the brake lining () so that the brake lining () can be brought to bear with the brake disk model () against a contact face (). A pretensioning device () is coupled to the mounting device () and/or to the securing device () so that the brake lining () can be pressed against the brake disk model () with a pressure force (') predetermined in terms of absolute value and direction. An excitation device (′) is provided for exciting oscillations of the brake disk model () and/or the brake lining ().
