Vehicle Braking Stability Analysis Considering Vehicle Structure Parameters Based on CarSim

Abstract

Abstract Vehicle braking stability performance can improve the safety of vehicle driving during a braking. However, some parameters of vehicle structure impact on the vehicle braking stability, the characteristic law of the relevant parameters on vehicle braking stability is ignored. A simulation model of vehicle is established using the software of CarSim. The vehicle model is included in the driving system, suspension, steering mechanism, braking system. The impact of wheelbase, and the height of centre of vehicle mass on braking stability performance is analysed. The characteristic law of the relevant parameters on vehicle braking stability is concluded. Based on the characteristic law, the ideal vehicle braking stability is obtained by controlling the vehicle braking force of wheel and the steering angle during a braking.
