Brake Technology, ABS/TCS, and Controlled Suspensions

Contains papers from the 2001 SAE World Congress, held March 5-8 in Detroit, Michigan. Paper topics include: a model-based brake pressure estimation strategy for traction control system; the development and testing of a prototype electromagnetic ABS for drum brakes; wheel-slip regulation based on sliding mode approach; numerical study of brake disc cooling accounting for both aerodynamic drag force and cooling efficiency; comparison of control methods for electric vehicle antilock braking / traction control systems; an investigation into fuzzy control for anti-lock braking system based on road autonomous identification; and a study on brake squeal by feed-in energy analysis.
