An ABS control logic based on wheel force measurement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The paper presents an anti-lock braking system (ABS) control logic based on the measurement of the longitudinal forces at the hub bearings. The availability of force information allows to design a logic that does not rely on the estimation of the tyre ...

Cooperative look-ahead control for fuel-efficient and safe heavy-duty vehicle platooning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The operation of groups of heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) at a small inter-vehicular distance (known as platoon) allows to lower the overall aerodynamic drag and, therefore, to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

Vehicle dynamics with brake hysteresis [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part D: Journal of Automobile Engineering, 2012
This paper studies hysteresis of vehicle brakes and its influence on the vehicle dynamics. The experimental investigation clearly shows the non-linear and asymmetric characteristics of hysteresis of the disk brakes in passenger cars. A computational model of the brake mechanism with hysteretic elements, based on the Bouc–Wen method, is developed and ...
