HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEMS FOR PASSENGER CARS AND LIGHT TRUCKS ”This was an excellent overview of the topic, but it dealt with
This course analyzes automotive braking from a system’s perspective, emphasizing legal requirements as well as performance expectations. Calculations necessary to predict brake balance and key system sizing variables that contribute to performance will be discussed. Major components of a brake system, including calipers, boosters, master cylinders, drum brakes, and park brakes are presented in detail highlighting the many design variations. An overview of the chassis control components and operating principles will be presented with an emphasis on ABS, traction control and stability control. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to: • Design a brake system in compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards • Calculate the ideal brake balance for a vehicle under any loading condition • Calculate the actual brake balance and brake output for a selected set of brake components and evaluate the e¥ects of changing component parameters • Determine the e¥ects of variation in component parameters on the system performance • Describe the basic function of major brake components • Describe various chassis control systems and their role in vehicle safety • Determine the appropriate design variation for a particular application WHO SHOULD ATTEND Engineers interested or responsible for the specification, prediction and validation of braking system performance. It will also benefit engineers responsible for brake component design. CONTENT HIGHLIGHTS • System Level Requirements • Brake Balance and System Output Calculations • Workshop - design a brake system and predict the performance to key system level targets • Component Functional Review • Workshop - determine the e¥ects of component variation on design • Anti-lock Braking Systems • Advanced Concepts and Technology
