The wheel slip control systems are able to control the braking force more accurately and can be adapted to different vehicles more easily than conventional ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) systems. In realizing the wheel slip control systems, real-time information such as the tire braking force at each wheel is required. In addition, the optimal target slip values need to be determined depending on the braking objectives such as minimum braking distance and stability enhancement. In this paper, a robust wheel slip controller is developed based on the adaptive sliding mode control method and an optimal target slip assignment algorithm is proposed for maximizing the braking force. An adaptive law is formulated to estimate the braking force in real-time. The wheel slip controller is designed based on the Lyapunov stability theory considering the error bounds in estimating the braking force and the brake disk-pad friction coefficient. The target slip assignment algorithm searches for the optimal target slip value based on the estimated braking force. The performance of the proposed wheel slip control system is verified in HILS (Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulator) experiments and demonstrates the effectiveness of the wheel slip control in various road conditions.

This study carries out the performance improvement and simplification of hydraulic modulator that plays an important role in vehicle stability control systems. The mathematical models for each component of a modulator, such as pump, wheel cylinder, check and solenoid valve, accumulator, damper are derived in detail. All the mathematical models are combined to form a modulator system and implemented through a computer program, which can be controlled by a user friendly GUI. To verity the simulation, comparison between simulation and experiments has been made. After the verification of the validity of the simulation, the effects of the design parameters of the modulator on the wheel cylinder pressure is investigated. The results show that the modulator without MPA has advantage in early time pressure rise rate, and it can be simplified.

전자 제어식 미끄럼 방지 제동 장치(ABS, Anti-lock Brake System)를 장착한 차량의 실차 제동 시험은 시험용 차량을 비롯하여, 많은 분석장비를 필요로 한다. 이러한 고가의 장비는 구하기가 어려울 뿐만 아니라 사용방법을 학습하는 데에도 상당한 기간을 필요로 하므로, 개발중인 ABS에 대하여 적용해 보기에는 그 사용에 제약을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 개발중인 미끄럼방지 제동 알고리즘과 전자제어장치(ECU, Electronic Control Unit)를 대형 버스에 장착하여, 저 점착 노면에서 주행 시험을 시행하였고, 그 주행 기록의 분석을 위하여 DAS(Data Acquisition System)를 구현하였다. 개발 ABS 알고리즘 및 ECU의 기능과 성능 검증이 목적인 DAS는 부가적인 센서 및 고가의 장비를 사용하지 않고 제어보드와 휴대용 노트북 컴퓨터를 이용하였다. 고정밀도의 자료를 획득할 수는 없었지만, 개발 DAS를 이용한 차량 실차 제동 시험은 경제적이면서도 효과적인 ECU 및 알고리즘의 성능 분석을 이룰 수 있었다. 특히 개발 DAS는 제어 및 Data Acquisition을 동일한 보드를 사용하여 구현함으로써, ABS 장착 실차 주행 시험 결과를 제어알고리즘에 즉각적으로 반영시킨 수 있었다. 이러한 One Board System 및 On-Vehicle Programming을 이용한 방법은 개발 알고리즘의 빠른 Debugging 및 파라미터 조정(Tuning)을 가능하게 하였으므로, 실차 제동 시험을 위한 한정된 기간 내에 개발 ABS ECU 및 제어 알고리즘의 성능을 효과적으로 검증할 수 있었다.

최근 자동차가 편리성과 안전성을 추구함에 따라서 자동차 부품도 과거의 기계식 동작 방법에서 전자 제어 장치가 부착된 전자식 동작 방법으로 발전되어 가고 있는 추세입니다. 또한 연비 향상을 위하여 부품의 소형화가 급속히 추진되고 있습니다. 이러한 전자화, 소형화를 실현시키기 위해 자동차 부품에서의 정밀성이 요구되어 지고 있고, 부품 제조 측면에서는 고속화, 정확성이 요구되고 있는 실정입니다. 당사의 경우 CBS (Conventional Brake System)를 생산하다가 전자 제어 장치가 부착된 ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)의 생산을 시작할 때, 부품의 정밀도를 좌우하는 각 치수의 공차 영역이 전체적으로 CBS 대비 약 1/5 수준밖에 되지 않고, 가공 속도는 약 2 배가 빨라야 하기 때문에 생산 준비 단계에서 많은 시행 착오를 겪어야만 했습니다. 여기서 당사가 ABS를 양산하면서 겪은 경험을 토대로 기술토록 하겠습니다. 가공 기술의 경우 고속, 정밀 가공을 실현시키기 위해서 크게 4 가지 측면을 고려해야만 하며, 그 4가지는 설비, Tool Holder, Tool, Chip 측면입니다. 먼저 설비가 고정도가 되기 위해 고강성을 필요로 하는 것은 물론 가동중에 필연적으로 발생하는 열변형에 대한 대책을 수립하지 않으면 안됩니다. 이러한 열변형은 설비 설계 단계에서 대책을 수립할 수 있는 것도 있지만 주위 온도 변화에 의한 열변형처럼 사용 중에 발생되는 것은 설비 사용자가 장시간에 걸친 Data 를 확보하여 대책을 수립하지 않으면 안됩니다. 또한 Tool Holder의 정도도 일반적으로 사용하는 것보다는 고정도의 것이 요구되어지므로 Tool Holder Maker 에 반드시 요구 정도를 명기하여 주문하여야 합니다. Tool도 고속화를 실현시키기 위해 고정도의 다이아몬드 공구가 필요하였고 이를 국내에서 개발하기 위해 많은 시행 착오를 겪어야만 했습니다. 또한 Chip 배출이 고정도의 필수 고려 항목으로서 당사에서는 경우에 따라 여러 가지의 방법을 사용하고 있습니다. 조립 기술의 경우 스테인레스 박판을 열변형을 최소로 하면서 용접을 하기 위해서 레이저 용접을 도입하였고, 부품을 압입하면서 정확하고 정밀한 치수 셋팅을 위하여 서버 모타를 이용한 압입 방법을 사용하였습니다.

Mechatronic subsystems are more and more developed in automotive industries. To enhance the local controls performances, a cooperative control between ABS and Suspension systems is proposed. The respective controls are first designed separately with their dedicated models. Then a hybrid hierarchical architecture is developed. The advantage of this architecture is discussed through vehicle performance with simulation results.

This study proposes two ESP systems which are designed to enhance the lateral stability of a vehicle. A BESP uses an inner rear wheel braking pressure controller, while a EBESP employs an inner rear wheel and front outer wheel braking pressure controller. The performances of the BESP and EBESP are evaluated for various road conditions and steering inputs. They reduce the slip angle and eliminate variation in the lateral acceleration, which increase the controllability and stability of the vehicle. However EBESP enhances the lateral stability and comfort. A driver model is also developed to control the steer angle input. It shows good performances because the vehicle tracks the desired lane very well.

This study is concerned with the braking distance estimation using frictional energy rate. First, steady state rolling analysis is performed, and using this result, the braking distance is estimated. Dynamic rolling analysis during entire braking time period is impratical, so that this study divides the vehicle velocity by 10km/h to reduce the analysis time. The multiplication of the slip rate and the shear stress provides the frictional energy rate. Using frictional energy rate, total braking distance is estimated, In addition, ABS(Anti-lock Brake System) is considered, and two type of slip ratios are compared, One is 15% slip ratio for the ABS condition, and the other is 100% slip ratio which leads lo the almost same braking distance as the elementary kinematic theory. A slip ratio is controlled by angular velocity in ABAQUS/Explicit, A 15% slip ratio gives the real vehicle's braking distance when the frictional energy occurred al disk pad is included. Disk pad's frictional energy rate is calculated by the theoretical approach.
