ABSTRACT: Deceleration or stopping the vehicle without any diving and lateral acceleration is essential to develop an effective braking system. The hydraulic braking system with intelligent braking called Antilock Braking system (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) has been introduced.  However, due to the insufficient human effort, the ABS and ESC to some extent, not function well...

Currently, vehicles are often equipped with active safety systems to reduce the risk of accidents, many of which occur in the urban environments. The most popular include Antilock Braking Systems (ABS), Traction Control and Stability Control. All these systems employ different types of sensors to constantly monitor the conditions of the vehicle, and respond in an emergency situation. In this pa...

This paper proposes an intelligent regenerative braking control of hybrid buses through a neuro-fuzzy controller (NFC) by combining the fuzzy logic algorithm and the artificial neural networks. The braking torque distribution between the integrating starting generator (ISG) and the friction disc brake is addressed through the proposed NFC. The results of simulation and validation show that the ...

Intelligent systems designed to reduce highway fatalities have been widely applied in the automotive sector in the last decade. Of all users of transport systems, pedestrians are the most vulnerable in crashes as they are unprotected. This paper deals with an autonomous intelligent emergency system designed to avoid collisions with pedestrians. The system consists of a fuzzy controller based on...

This work presents a hydraulic anti-lock braking system (ABS) for a motorcycle. The ABS has a hydraulic modulator and an intelligent controller. The hydraulic modulator is analyzed, and then equipped on a scooter for road tests. The intelligent controller controls the hydraulic modulator by estimated vehicle velocity to calculate the slip ratio of the wheels in real time. The performance of the...

The reliability of the braking system of moving walks plays a major role in the safe exploitation of these people movers. According to the requirements of the new standard ISO 22201-2, the reliability of a braking system of a moving walk has to correspond to safety integrity levels SIL1 till SIL3. In order to determine the required safety integrity level, a reliability analysis of a braking sys...
