Simulation modeling of the automobile braking system performance
Santrauka
Simulation model of the automobile braking system performance taking into account not only the wheel, brake pads, brake drum dynamics but the dynamics of the hydraulic brake system: the main hydraulic cylinder, the brake gear hydraulic cylinders has been presented. Effect of changing parameters of the braking system elements on the braking distance of the automobile has been considered. Road users’ safety relies heavily on effectiveness of vehicle braking system. Thus, braking system design is essential when designing a new vehicle. Modeling of the functionality of the designed system is one of the most important phases of design. Time and material expenses for imitational modeling are always less than actually producing models and conducting experiments on them. Experiments should prove theoretical abstracts stated while modeling. Thus, the imitational model should be well designed and adequate. Imitational model allows efficient operation of brake system with different system of control.
