Electronic Braking, Traction, and Stability Controls, Volume 2 PT-129

This book contains 80 papers covering six years of research (2000-2005) on advances in electronic braking systems (including brake-by-wire and antilock braking systems), traction control systems (TCS, ASR); and stability control systems (VDC).

Subjects covered include:

Wheel-slip control

Vehicle network protocols

Brake systems for hybrid vehicles

Hydraulic braking systems

Crash avoidance and rollover prevention

Fuzzy logic controllers

Torque management systems

Chassis control

Steering control

Tire-road friction estimation

The book also includes editor Ronald K. Jurgen's introduction ("Interrelationships are Key") and concluding chapter on future trends in the areas of electronic braking, traction, and stability control.
