4. Overview
Design Goals:
• attain minimum stopping distance
• maintain stability and steerability
Design Solution:
Develop a system that rapidly modulates the
braking force under hard braking conditions to:
• maintain the ideal tire slip percentage to
maximize braking force (≈ 15%), recalling
that Fbrake = µBN
• permit the vehicle to be steered with
stability maintained by preventing skidding
