Hydraulic anti-lock, anti-skid braking system using fuzzy controller

To maintain the stability trajectory of vehicles under critical driving conditions, anti lock-anti skid controllers, consisting of four anti-lock sub-controllers for each wheel and two anti-skid sub-controllers for left and right pair wheels have been separately designed. Wheel and body systems have been simulated with seven degrees of freedom to evaluate the proper functioning of controllers. ...

Designing a Genetic-Fuzzy Anti-Lock Brake System Controller (RESEARCH NOTE)

Brake System Design for Sports Cars using Digital Logic Method

Brake system performance significantly affects safety, handling and vehicle dynamics. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to discuss brake system characteristics and performance and component design parameters. We perform a detailed study of a specific brake system designed for Mercedes-AMG SLC-43, considering component design parameters and operational points, and finally conduct the veh...

Active Brake Judder Compensation Using an Electro-Hydraulic Brake System

Geometric imperfections on brake rotor surface are well-known for causing periodic variations in brake torque during braking. This leads to brake judder, where vibrations are felt in the brake pedal, vehicle floor and/or steering wheel. Existing solutions to address judder often involve multiple phases of component design, extensive testing and improvement of manufacturing procedures, leading t...

Passenger safety in cars.

Comparison of child passengers between January 1983 and 1984 showed an increased use of rear safety restraints after the wearing of front seat belts became mandatory. In 1984, however, only 25% of children were restrained, most commonly in a safety seat.
