Algorithm of anti-lock braking system for two-axle vehicles with one driving axle with adaptive redistribution of braking forces

The main purpose of active vehicle safety systems is to prevent an emergency situation. If such a situation arises, the system independently (without the participation of the driver) assesses the probable danger and, if necessary, prevents it by actively intervening in the driving process. One of the ways to increase the active safety of vehicles when braking is the use of anti-lock braking systems (ABS). The main problems in ensuring the operation of the ABS, built on different control principles and with different control parameters, are the impossibility of directly determining the vehicle speed and, as a result, the slip coefficient, as well as the inability to effectively respond to changing road conditions during braking. For example, when braking on a slippery supporting surface and trying to avoid an obstacle in front, there is a risk of losing traction and skidding. The algorithms of the ABS operation developed at present do not ensure the prevention of the occurrence and development of skidding under the conditions indicated above. The aim of the work is to increase the stability and controllability of two-axle vehicles with one driving axle during braking due to the adaptive redistribution of braking forces on the wheels. An algorithm for the operation of an anti-lock braking system with adaptive redistribution of braking forces on the wheels of a vehicle is proposed. Thanks to this algorithm, when braking on a slippery surface of a two-axle vehicle with one driving axle, the absence of wheel blocking and also skid resistance are ensured. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm when braking a two-axle vehicle with one driving axle on a slippery supporting surface were proved by the methods of simulation.
