Brake System Design for Sports Cars using Digital Logic Method
Authors
Abstract:
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 vehicle braking system layout design. To this end, brake force and torque calculations and power dissipation modelling is performed. Then, ventilated brake discs are designed for the front and rear brakes. A main goal of the present article is to apply digital logic method to the material selection procedure among the candidate material proposed for brake components and rank the materials according to performance indices. The performance indices of five candidate materials were calculated and compared to select the best option for application in the brake disc. Finally, the calculations of the brake pedal, booster, cylinder, hoses and tubes are obtained.

full textFusion of Brake Pedal Sensors in By-wire Cars: a Fuzzy Logic Approach
By-wire braking is one of the important parts in a by-wire car from safety point of view. Because of safety critical issues, brake pedal is equipped with multiple sensors and their data must be properly fused. In addition to accuracy and robustness, mathematical complexity and computational load of the fusion method are also considered in this application. In this paper, a soft voting method is...
full textFuzzy throttle and brake control for platoons of smart cars
Additive fuzzy systems can control the velocity and the gap between cars in single lane platoons. The system consists of throttle and brake controllers. We first designed and tested a throttle-only fuzzy system on a validated car model and then with a real car on highway I-15 in California. We used this controller to drive the “smart” car on the highway in a two-car platoon. Then we designed a ...

In this paper presents a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique based on the Hill Climbing Search (HCS) method and fuzzy logic system for Wind Turbines (WTs) including of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) as generator. In the conventional HCS method the step size is constant, therefor both steady-state response and dynamic response of method cannot provide at the same time an...
full textActive 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...
