Abstract

Traction control system in automotive applications increases the stability and safety of vehicles. There are various types of vehicle control systems employed in internal combustion engine vehicles. The application of control system to motorcycles (two wheelers) is not so widely used as that of four wheelers, because of high cost of the control system. If one moves at high speed in motorcycles at the corners, the centripetal force exceeds the frictional force. At that time lower amount of traction effort occurs in between the tire and road and hence high amount of skidding will occur in the motorcycles. The proposed control system design helps the rider in maintaining a secure of the motorcycle in bend. Geometry parameters such as rolling angle and steering angle of the bike are taken into consideration. The centripetal force and frictional force can be measured using the sensors by interfacing it with the Lab VIEW software. The simulation of the control system design has been carried out and the values for the skidding condition are obtained.
