Evaluation Method about Braking Force Utilization

Abstract:

For the braking performance investigated when vehicle was on the road of different road adhesion coefficient, the match of ideal braking force distribution curves of front and rear wheels and front and rear arresters was studied. The concept of braking performance to reflect "braking force utilization" was introduced.The braking force utilization algorithm came out depending on the different matches. A light bus was chosen as an example. Vehicle braking performance under different road adhesion coefficient was studied in detail.At the same time, vehicle braking performance under different matches was studied with braking force distribution value changed. The results indicate that, braking force utilization appears first increased and then decreased with the increase of road adhesion coefficient.Along with the increase of braking force distribution value,the braking force utilization decreased on low adhesion coefficient road,then increased on high adhesion coefficient road.The method could evaluate the braking performance on the road of different road adhesion coefficient efficiently.
