The Development of a Hybrid Antilock Braking System Using Magnetorheological Brake

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposes a novel hybrid antilock braking system (ABS) with the combination of auxiliary brake and a magnetorheological (MR) brake with multiple poles. The operation concept of this MR brake is different to conventional MR brake. Its output torque proves the ability to be used in motorcycle brake system. In concept, a fast-response MR brake replaces existed hydraulic brake system, or works as an auxiliary brake, the brake performance can be effectively improved and driving stability can be guaranteed. Simulation model of the MR brake has been built and its braking performance for using on a motorcycle was verified. After that, a motorcycle simulation software was employed to validate the hybrid ABS system under appropriated working condition. The results confirm its feasibility for actual application as a hybrid ABS system.
