Braking performance oriented multi–objective optimal design of electro–mechanical brake parameters

Abstract

Excellent braking performance is the premise of safe driving, and improve the braking performance by upgrading structures and optimizing parameters of braking systems has become the pursuit of engineers. With the development of autonomous driving and intelligent connected vehicle, new structural schemes such as electro–mechanical brakes (EMBs) have become the future of vehicle braking systems. Meanwhile, many scholars have dedicated to the research on the parameters optimization of braking systems. While, most of the studies focus on reducing the brake size and weight, improving the brake responses by optimizing the parameters, almost not involving the braking performance, and the optimization variables are relatively single. On these foundations, a multi–objective optimal design of EMB parameters is proposed to enhance the vehicle’s braking performance. Its objectives and constraints were defined based on relevant standards and regulations. Subsequently, the decision variables were set, and optimal math model was established. Furthermore, the co–simulation platform was constructed, and the optimal design and simulation analyses factoring in the crucial structural and control parameters were performed. The results confirmed that the maximum braking pressure response time of the EMB is decreased by approximately 0.3 s, the stopping distance (SD) of 90 km/h–0 is shortened by about 3.44 m. Moreover, the mean fully developed deceleration (MFDD) is increased by 0.002 g, and the lateral displacement of the body (LD) is reduced by about 0.037 m. Hence, the vehicle braking performance is improved.

Electric Vehicle Power System in Intelligent Manufacturing Based on Soft Computing Optimization

“…The space parameters of the problem cannot be explicitly addressed by GA during optimization. It primarily uses mathematical transformation and computer simulation calculation to transform the multi-objective issue that must be solved using coding technology (Mehmood et al 2021;Wu et al 2021). Figure 2 depicts the GA's running sequence.…”

Exploring Vehicle Security Improvement Framework in the Safety Messaging System to Protect Against Hackers

“…The system design can also be an integral source for safety systems and human-machine interaction models (Madrigal & Frederic, 2020). Additionally, it is a much rather complex and increasingly sub-functional system due to the confluence of on an already involved electro-mechanical network (Wu, Li, and Qin, 2021). This vehicle systems include the following: engine, framework, electrical power, power plant, and hydraulic, and safety system that must be conveniently tied up together to purposely function within the vehicle system architecture (Haider, 2020;Madrigal & Frederic, 2020;Wu, Li, & Qin, 2021).…”
