Introduction to Brake Control Systems e-Seminar

 

Price $ 995

 

In this e-seminar, James Walker, Jr. delves into brake control technology. Starting with the fundamentals of the tire-road interface, this

course introduces participants to brake control system mechanization, system sensor needs, and the basic control strategies employed

by anti-lock braking systems (ABS), traction control systems (TCS), electronic stability control systems (ESC), and their derivatives.

 

Limiting factors and compromises that must be made in the design and development of brake control systems are covered through a

brief review of hydraulic brake system functionality, the friction circle concept, and the fundamentals of longitudinal and lateral vehicle

dynamics. Brake control system integration with other vehicle on-board technologies are also discussed.

 

Based on the popular classroom seminar, the nine and a half hour course is divided into 13 modules accompanied by a handbook.

Walker revisits key concepts in a summary at the end of the course to reinforce learning and retention.
