A system (e.g., a vehicle control system) includes a brake control unit that is configured to be operably deployed onboard a vehicle. The brake control unit has one or more sensor inputs and one or more control outputs. One of the sensor units is configured to receive a speed signal from a speed sensor of the vehicle; the speed signal is indicative of a vehicle speed detected by the speed sensor. One of the control outputs is configured for connection to a brake system of the vehicle. The brake control unit is configured to generate a vehicle control signal to initiate a vehicle brake operation responsive to the speed indicated by the speed signal going above a designated first speed threshold and the speed signal meeting one or more first designated criteria in addition to the first speed threshold.

A vehicle motion control apparatus includes a control unit which controls a steering apparatus and a brake apparatus provided in a vehicle. The control unit acquires a normative motion state amount necessary for the vehicle to trace a target traveling path, acquires a target motion state amount necessary for generating a yaw moment to cancel unstable behavior of the vehicle, and acquires a target steering angle for generating a steering angle moment and a target brake force for generating a brake moment, to obtain a necessary yaw moment generated by the vehicle. The control unit outputs a first control command for obtaining the target steering angle to the steering apparatus and outputs a second control command for obtaining the target brake force to the brake apparatus.

A controller (51) for a rider-assistance system (50) mounted to a straddle-type vehicle (100) includes: a determination section that determines necessity of the warning given to the rider; a haptic motion performing section that performs haptic motion at least once to reduce or increase acceleration/deceleration of the straddle-type vehicle (100) only for a moment; and an acquisition section that acquires travel state information of the straddle-type vehicle (100). The haptic motion performing section changes a priority of each wheel (3, 4) at the time of changing a braking force to reduce or increase the acceleration/deceleration only for the moment in the haptic motion according to the travel state information acquired by the acquisition section.

For a tank truck using an EBS, the present invention provides a tank truck rollover relieved control method based on electronic braking deceleration. Firstly, a tank truck rollover scene applicable to the relieved control method is defined; then, a least square method is adopted to establish a characterization function of tank truck braking deceleration; and finally, tank truck rollover relieved control is achieved on the basis of the characterization function of the braking deceleration and the EBS. The method fits out a function expression of the tank truck braking deceleration and can automatically select a proper braking deceleration under different rollover scenes according to kinematics information of the tank truck and vehicle body information; during tank truck braking deceleration, an operation of a driver is considered, so that man-machine effective combination is achieved; and relieved braking deceleration is conducted when the tank truck is in a potential rollover risk state, a situation that emergency braking is conducted when the tank truck has high rollover risk is avoided, and tank truck rollover control stability and effectiveness are improved.
