Analytical Target Cascading Method on Braking System Characteristics Optimization

Abstract:

Because of the Limitations and shortcomings of the traditional multi-disciplinary optimization methods, this paper presents a useful optimal method named Analytical Target Cascading (ATC) for braking system characteristics optimization. The deceleration and pedal sense are chosen as the design targets. Brake system is divided into 4 subsystems: pedal, vacuum booster, master cylinder, brake. The optimization results show that ATC has a high degree of accuracy.
