Abstract
Ever-increasing demands in term of responsiveness and control are being made on system for brake and chassis management in commercial vehicles. Electronic Braking System (EBS) introduced in commercial vehicles providing rapid brake response and release for every single wheel of commercial vehicles according to the driver´s demands. EBS ability for electronically monitoring and controlling of the index pressures between the proportional relay valve (front axle), axle modulator (rear axle) and trailer control valve has been used in this paper for introducing a new adaptive control strategy for the braking forces distribution of commercial vehicles. Implementation, here proposed, intelligent control strategy has be done by artificial intelligence technology based on neural network control. The main benefit of the proposed intelligent control strategy is that future decisions related to the control of braking systems are based on the developed neural model of braking system operation of commercial vehicle.
