Brake system simulation to predict brake pedal feel in a passenger car
Braking system characteristics, brake system performance and brake system component design parameters that influence brake pedal ‘feel’ in a passenger car have been studied using the simulation modelling package AMESim, in particular to model the linear and nonlinear characteristics of internal components.

Prepared for the expected but unready for the unexpected: Unmet distractor expectations slow braking responsiveness but improve lane-keeping precision in a virtual driving simulation. [PDF]
Driving requires attentional control mechanisms to enhance the detection of driving-relevant objects and to mitigate interference from distractors.

Braking Time and Cognitive, Visual, and Motor Determinants in Older Drivers With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With and Without Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: A Controlled Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
Older drivers with T2DM show significantly longer braking times compared to those without diabetes, regardless of the presence of peripheral neuropathy based on the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument. Female sex and reduced plantar flexor strength predict poorer braking performance.

Rear-end crashes are one of the leading types of crashes today. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) was designed to assist drivers during emergency braking situations by preventing wheel lock up, allowing drivers to retain control of the vehicle.

Effect of Behavioral Precaution on Braking Operation of Elderly Drivers under Cognitive Workloads
The number of accidents by elderly drivers caused by the erroneous tread of a brake pedal or accelerator pedal has increased. A recent study reported that the number of accidents could be reduced by preparing for braking mistakes due to driving behavior ...

Force-Vector Pilates Exercises on Functional Performance and Braking Reaction Time in Older Professional Drivers: An Exploratory Feasibility Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Evidence regarding driving‐related outcomes in older professional drivers remains limited. This exploratory feasibility study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a force‐vector–oriented Mat Pilates program in older professional drivers and to explore potential changes in functional performance and braking ...

Recent experiences have shown that one of the main causes of heavy vehicle crashes is the braking performance. In particular, when having to decelerate in an emergency situation, such as when an unexpected object is in the road. Thus, the capability of a vehicle to come to a safe stop is one of the most important factors in preventing more accidents ...
