PNEUMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM

The main objective of this project is for security system. If vehicle moves very near to the opposite vehicle then it applies brake automatically. It is used for avoiding accident over by racing in highways and parking or busy traffic areas through pneumatic braking. Pneumatic braking system works faster when compared to other devices. So we can achieve the high efficient operation by programming the microcontroller. The aim is to design and develop a control system based on pneumatic braking system of an intelligent electronically controlled automotive braking system. Based on this model, control strategies such as an 'antilock braking system' (ABS) and improved maneuverability via individual wheel braking are to be developed and evaluated. There have been considerable advances in modern vehicle braking systems in recent years. For example, electronically controlled ABS for emergency braking, electronically controlled hydraulically actuated individual brake-by-wire (BBW) systems for saloon cars and electronically controlled pneumatically actuated systems for heavy goods vehicles. The work of recent years shall form the basis of a system design approach to be implemented. The novelty of the proposed research programmed shall lie in the design and evaluation of control systems for achieving individual wheel motion control facilitated by BBW. In the case of BBW the brake pedal is detached from the hydraulic system and replaced by a 'brake pedal simulator'. The simulator provides an electrical signal for the electronic control system. Preliminary modeling and simulation work considers a quarter cars initially followed by a natural progression to the half car and full four wheel station cases. The model is to be constructed in modular form thus allowing the replacement / interchange of the various blocks and their associated technologies. Upon completion of the full vehicle braking model, sensitivity analyses will be carried out. Once the preliminary simulation model has been thoroughly benchmarked and existing control system strategies evaluated, an audit of the technology used is to take place and this will provide a basis for comparison of iterative technologies / techniques.
