The paper describes the procedure our research group followed to prototype an Electro-Hydraulic Braking system (EHB).

Abstract

The paper describes the procedure our research group followed to prototype an Electro-Hydraulic Braking system (EHB). The first step consisted in developing a model of the system, by using the softwares AMESim® and Simulink®. Then the Pedal Force Emulator (PFE) was designed in detail and built. A devoted Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) bench was used to test the prototype and the same procedure was followed for the hydraulic unit. It is important to underline that the principal target of the activity consisted in trying to adapt the standard components of a traditional braking system to develop a low cost EHB. Also devoted valves to connect the driver foot to the wheel calipers in case of fault were used to create a reliable failsafe system.
