Antilock Braking System Slip Control Modeling Revisited

The introduction of anti-lock braking system (ABS) has been regarded as one of the solutions for braking performance issues due to its notable advantages. The subject had been extensively being studied by researchers until today, to improve the performance of the todays vehicles particularly on the brake system. In this paper, a basic modeling of an ABS braking system via slip control has been introduced on a quarter car model with a conventional hydraulic braking mode. Results of three fundamental controller designs used to evaluate the braking performance of the modeled ABS systems are also been presented. This revisited modeling guide, could be a starting point for new researchers to comprehend the basic braking system behavior before going into more complex braking systems studies.
