Introduction to Brake Control
Systems e-Seminar
I.D.#PD130501ON (Online delivery)
In this e-seminar, James Walker, Jr. delves into brake control
technology. Starting with the fundamentals of the tire-road
interface, this course introduces participants to brake control system
mechanization, system sensor needs, and the basic control strategies
employed by anti-lock braking systems (ABS), traction control systems
(TCS), electronic stability control systems (ESC), and their derivatives.
Limiting factors and compromises that must be made in the design
and development of brake control systems are covered through a
brief review of hydraulic brake system functionality, the friction circle
concept, and the fundamentals of longitudinal and lateral vehicle
dynamics. Brake control system integration with other vehicle onboard technologies are also discussed.
Based on the popular classroom seminar, the nine and a half hour
course is divided into 13 modules accompanied by a handbook.
Walker revisits key concepts in a summary at the end of the course to
reinforce learning and retention.

By participating in this e-Seminar, you will be able to:
•	Analyze brake system design parameters and their vehicle
performance effects
•	Evaluate the compromises between stability, steerability, and
stopping distance
•	Discern the discrete mechanical components required for ABS
•	Specify fundamental ABS performance attributes
•	Estimate dynamic brake balance and explain the benefits of DRP
•	Reconcile TCS performance expectations vs. method of
implementation
•	Interpret ESC metrics and ultimate dynamic limitations
•	Discuss opportunities for advanced brake control system integration
•	Comprehend federal requirements for the performance of ESC

Major topics include:
•	Tire-Road Interface Characteristics
•	Hydraulic Brake System Overview
•	Stability, Steerability, Stopping Distance
•	Mechanization of ABS
•	 ABS Sensor Overview
•	 ABS Performance
•	 DRP
•	 Mechanization of TCS and ESC
•	TCS and ESC Sensor Requirements
•	TCS Performance
•	ESC Performance
•	Special Conditions and Considerations
•	Advanced Integration

Stopping Distance is one of the most common metrics of a vehicle’s
braking performance and one of the most critical attributes of
accident prevention and minimization. The measurements are used
within the development of the vehicle and are a critical aspect of
accident prevention, accident reconstruction, and overall occupant
and pedestrian safety management. While the results of this metric
are published in a variety of sources, the factors that differentiate
vehicle performance, vehicle dynamics, and calculation of the braking
performance required to achieve desired performance are not widely
available.

•	 Calculation of Stopping Distance
•	 Common Procedures Used to Assess Stopping Distance
•	 Performance Metrics Compared to Target Avoidance
•	 Determination and Generation of Forces Necessary to Stop a Vehicle
•	 Contributions and Limitations

What You Will Receive:

Instructor: James Walker, Jr.

Vehicle Braking Performance:
Stopping Distance Fast Track

1.0 CEUs

The Vehicle Braking Performance: Stopping Distance Fast Track would
be of value to anyone involved in the validation of a braking system,
either in the development of the validation plan or the execution of
the validation plan. Those involved in accident reconstruction and
accident prevention would benefit from an understanding of the
techniques, principles, contributing factors and limitations of stopping
performance to improved vehicle and road system design. This course
would also be of value to those involved in vehicle marketing -- a
detailed understanding of the metric’s generation and contributing
effects will insure that promotion and comparison is done in a
qualified manner.
