The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for determining a control parameter associated with a vehicle. The systems may perform the methods to determine a first reference acceleration at a first time point; determine a second reference acceleration at a second time point, wherein the first time point and the second time point are separated by a predetermined time period; obtain a correction coefficient by using a simulation model, which is configured to simulate operation of the vehicle; and determine a target acceleration at the second time point based on the first reference acceleration, the second reference acceleration, and the correction coefficient.

Tone ring mounting structure for an antilock braking system comprising a wheel end assembly rotatable component having at least a first end surface and a first engagement mechanism extending radially and non-cantilevered from the rotatable component, and a tone ring having a second end surface and a second engagement mechanism extending radially from the tone ring. Connecting engagement of the first engagement mechanism of the wheel end assembly rotatable component and the second engagement mechanism of the tone ring affects movement of the second end surface in a direction toward the first end surface. The first engagement mechanism and the second engagement mechanism can be engageable threads. The first engagement mechanism can include lugs formed on the wheel end assembly rotatable component and the second engagement mechanism threads or wedge ramps engageable with the lugs. A corrosion resistant coating can be applied to components of the tone ring mounting structure.

A method for automatic electronic control of a brake system in a vehicle includes reading a request signal for automatic electronic control of actuators in the vehicle. At least one of the actuators has an influence on actual longitudinal vehicle dynamics of the vehicle, and requests that are to be implemented by the actuators for realizing automatically requested target longitudinal vehicle dynamics are transmitted via the request signal. The method further includes plausibility-checking the request signal to establish whether the requests are, or can be, implemented completely or without error by the actuators, taking into account a tolerance, and determining a correction deceleration and/or a correction velocity if the implementation of at least one of the requests has not taken place, or cannot take place, completely or without error, taking into account the tolerance, in order to specify corrective braking.

A method for determining actual aircraft ground speed may comprise receiving a reference ground speed value; receiving a wheel speed value of a nose wheel of an aircraft; comparing the wheel speed value of the nose wheel and the reference ground speed value; and/or determining the actual aircraft ground speed based on the reference ground speed value and the wheel speed value.

A drive assist apparatus includes an electronic control unit configured to: compute, when an object that causes a blind spot is ahead of a host vehicle, a first reference velocity which is a velocity at which the host vehicle is able to run without colliding with a moving object assumed to be in the blind spot of the object; estimate a degree of risk associated with a road on which the host vehicle is running, based on environment information that indicates a running environment of the host vehicle; and compute a second reference velocity which is determined by correcting the first reference velocity based on the estimated degree of risk.

A braking force control apparatus is provided which has an upstream braking actuator for generating an upstream pressure common to four wheels, a downstream braking actuator individually controlling braking pressure supplied to braking force generating devices of the wheels using the upstream pressure, and a control unit. When the downstream braking actuator is abnormal and the upstream pressure can be supplied to the braking force generating devices, but a braking pressure of any one of the wheels cannot be normally controlled, the control unit selects a control mode on the pressure increasing side out of the front wheel control modes, selects a control mode on the pressure increasing side out of the rear wheel control modes, selects a control mode on the pressure decreasing side out of the two selected control modes as a prescribed control mode, and controls the upstream pressure in the prescribed control mode.

A speed control device includes: a first calculation unit to calculate first location information and first speed information from output of a speed generator; a second calculation unit to calculate second location information and second speed information from output of a speed sensor; a route database storage unit to store information to select one of a calculation result of the first calculation unit and a calculation result of the second calculation unit in accordance with a location of a vehicle; and a selection unit to select one of the calculation results on the basis of the information of the route database storage unit to output the information as location information and speed information, in which speed of the vehicle is determined on the basis of the location information and speed information.

A brake control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a braking device configured to generate a braking pressure based on a hydraulic pressure to provide a main braking force to a vehicle; and a controller configured to control at least one control module selected based on the speed of the vehicle among a plurality of control modules including an engine control module (EMS) of the vehicle, a motor control module and a parking brake control module to provide an auxiliary braking force to the vehicle when the braking device is in an abnormal state.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for controlling braking systems. In this regard, a method for controlling brakes may comprise receiving, by an antiskid control (ASK), a first wheel speed, calculating, by the ASK, a first wheel reference speed (WRS), and calculating, by the ASK, a first wheel reference estimate (WRE). In various embodiments, the method may further comprise determining if the first WRS is within a threshold value of the first WRE. In various embodiments, the method may further comprise calculating an ASK desired pressure. The ASK desired pressure may be calculated using the first WRS in response to the first WRS being within the threshold value of the first WRE. The ASK desired pressure may be calculated using the first WRE in response to the first WRS being outside the threshold value of the first WRE.

A braking controller and method in a towing vehicle towing one or more towed vehicles as a combination vehicle provides brake control of the one or more towed vehicles based on a level of braking force applied to the towing vehicle. A non-enhanced braking mode applies a first level of braking force to the towed vehicles in a predetermined reduced proportion relative to the level of braking force applied to the towing vehicle, and an enhanced braking mode applies a second level of braking force to the towed vehicles greater than the first level of braking force. A controller deceleration command input receives a deceleration command signal which is compared against predetermined threshold deceleration rate value or against a current deceleration value being executed by the combination vehicle and, based on a result of the comparisons, either the enhanced or the non-enhanced braking modes are implemented by the controller.
