1 Introduction
Modern vehicles have become increasingly computerized to satisfy the more strict safety requirements
and to provide better driving experiences. Therefore, the number of electronic control units
(ECUs) in modern vehicles has continuously increased in last few decades (e.g., some luxury cars
can have up to 100 ECUs). In addition, advanced functionalities (e.g., collision avoidance and
adaptive cruise control) put higher computational demand on ECUs, which further increases the
design complexity of automotive control s ....etc

A moving train contains energy, known as kinetic energy, which needs to be removed from the train in order to cause it to stop. The simplest way of doing this is to convert the energy into heat.

The conversion is usually done by applying a contact material to the rotating wheels or to discs attached to the axles. The material creates friction and converts the kinetic energy into heat. The wheels slow down and eventually the train stops. The material used for braking is normally in the form of a block or pad

The vast majority of the ....etc

Troubleshooting Antilock Braking

Use your trusty multimeter to check continuity through wheel speed sensors.
This sensor has a value of about 1.5 K ohms.

AN INVESTIGATION OF ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMS FOR HEAVY GOODS VEHICLES

ABSTRACT
An articulated lorry was instrumented in order to measure its performance in straight-line
braking. The trailer was fitted with two interchangeable tandem axle sub–chassis, one with
an air suspension and the other with a steel monoleaf 4–spring suspension. The brakes were
only applied to the trailer axles, which were fitted with anti–lock braking systems (ABS),
with the brake torque controlled in response to anticpated locking of the lea ....etc

Technician Guidelines for Antilock Braking Systems



AN INTRODUCTION TO ANTILOCK BRAKING

This section reviews several basic antilock braking system
(ABS) concepts. When you complete this section, you should be
able to answer the following questions:
• What is an ABS?
• Why are antilock braking systems (ABSs) standard on
most new commercial vehicles?
• How does an ABS work?
• What are the major features and benefits of ABSs?
• How should I drive an ABS-equipped vehicle during a
road test?

ABSTRACT
Mechatronics is a hybrid technological field which evolved from the combination of mechanical, electronics & Software engineering. Automobiles need high degree of safety to protect the occupants and their property. Bearing this in senses we come up with a new concept of Electric pulse Magnetic Braking (E.P.M.Braking).
When the driver applies force on the brake pedal the magnitude is sensed by the pressure transducer which in turn sends the actuating signals to microprocessor. This intelligent devi ....etc

System Basics
• Hydraulic actuation allows multiplication of pedal force.
• In this system, a 10lb force on the pedal produces 360 lbs of force at the friction surface.
Braking Dynamics
• Dynamic weight transfer caused by braking shifts the weight balance towards the front of the car
• Dynamic weight for the front and rear can be found using Newton’s Law
Braking Dynamics
• Because the maximum braking force is equal to the coefficient of friction tim ....etc
