A method is provided for controlling power in a hybrid electric vehicle. The method may include receiving sensor input data in a computer-implemented artificial intelligence neural network operatively associated with the vehicle. The sensor input data may be generated in response to a travel condition or an operating state associated with the vehicle. The method may also include generating condition-based awareness signals with the artificial intelligence neural network; processing the condition-based awareness signals with control algorithms; and adjusting a power-related operating state of the vehicle in response to the processing performed by the control algorithm.

A drum brake apparatus is provided for a vehicle air braking system. The drum brake apparatus comprises a wheel drum having a first interior chamber. The drum brake apparatus also comprises a drum brake assembly disposed in the first interior chamber of the wheel drum and mounted on inboard side of the wheel drum. The drum apparatus further comprises a brake drum adapter mounted on outboard side of the wheel drum and providing a second interior chamber in which an electric drive motor can be disposed. The drum brake apparatus also comprises a wheel hub disposed in the second interior chamber of the brake drum adapter and to which a wheel rim can be mounted.
