Sliding mode control of anti-lock braking system: an overview

Abstract: An anti-lock braking system control is a rather difficult problem due to its strongly nonlinear and uncertain characteristics. To overcome these difficulties, robust control methods should be employed such as a sliding mode control. The aim of this paper is to give a short overview of sliding mode control techniques implemented in the control of ABS. The most used control algorithms are applied to a quarter vehicle model to demonstrate the advantages of this control approach. Fast convergence and good performances of the designed controllers are verified through digital simulations and validated in real time applications using a laboratory experimental setup.

Two-wheeled vehicle and chassis braking system

Abstract: A chassis braking system for braking a chassis includes a braking unit including a braking surface biased toward a road surface on which the chassis runs and having a first state where movement of the braking surface toward the road surface is locked and a second state where the braking surface abuts against the road surface. A control unit releases the lock of the braking unit and shifts the braking unit from the first state to the second state when predetermined conditions are met.

Regenerative braking controller

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a regenerative braking controller which can keep the energy regeneration efficiency high and can always ensure sufficient braking force SOLUTION: Generally, when there is a demand on a vehicle to brake, a clutch between an internal combustion engine and members of a drive system is disconnected and a generator connected to the members of a drive system is actuated to generate power by external force transmitted from wheels via the members of a drive system, by which regenerative braking is accomplished Meanwhile, a service brake is actuated according to a demanded quantity of braking to compensate for the shortage of braking force caused by a regenerative braking (S16-S22) However, if the braking load of the serving brake detected or estimated by a brake load detector becomes a proscribed value or higher (S26), when regenerative braking is limited according to a quantity of stored energy of a battery by a regenerative braking limiting means (S24), the clutch is connected by an engine brake controller so as to operate an engine brake (S28-S36)

Braking control device for electric motorcar

Abstract: A braking control device for electric motorcars, which uses together mechanical braking and regenerative braking produced by a motor. The control device, which uses together mechanical braking and regenerative braking, comprises a target braking force setting unit (9) for setting a target braking force on the basis of an amount of brake pedal operation, regenerative control means (4A, 5A) for setting a target regenerative braking force on the basis of an amount of brake pedal operation to control regenerative braking produced by the motor in accordance with the target regenerative braking force, and mechanical braking control means (24) for controlling an actuation of a mechanical brake system (24) for controlling an actuation of a mechanical brake system (B) according to a difference between the target braking force and an actual braking force based on a detected deceleration of a vehicle. Accordingly, it is possible to positively obtain a required braking force and to promote energy recovery effected by regenerative braking.
