TLDR
In this paper, the braking capability is continuously monitored, for which purpose the temperature of the brakes, their state of wear, the state of a pneumatic reservoir and the tyre pressure are measured.Abstract:
These provide for continuous measurement of parameters characterising the state of the vehicle, such as the speed of the vehicle, the inclination of the roadway, the axle load and the lateral acceleration. Furthermore, the braking capability is continuously monitored, for which purpose the temperature of the brakes, their state of wear, the state of a pneumatic reservoir and the tyre pressure are measured. It is determined for a given state of vehicle and brakes whether the braking distance to be anticipated is longer than a predetermined reference braking distance. If so, the driver is warned and/or a reduction of the vehicle's speed forcibly initiated.read more

Vehicle braking system
TL;DR: In this article, an electronically controlled braking system for a vehicle in which vehicle load measurements, made dynamically, as used to modify the braking demand, individually for each axle of the vehicle and under predetermined conditions of vehicle speed, braking level and operating gradient, is used gradually, over a number of vehicle stops, to form an adaptive factor for correcting the braking demands in order to restore expected braking perfor-Imance.
