Description
Summary:Electro-mechanical brakes (EMB) are promising alternatives to conventional braking systems, as they are eco-friendly and have lower maintenance requirements. Currently, researchers and automotive manufacturers are interested in developing the performance of EMB systems for implementation in commercial vehicles. Current studies are either conducted experimentally and/ or modeled using mathematical based simulation models using different vehicles kinematic and dynamic models. These models are time-consuming, and expensive in case of experimental implementation. This paper presents a simple and easy-to-construct simulation model using MATLAB Simulink Graphical user interface (GUI) without using conventional mathematical modelling techniques. The presented simulation model studies the effect of the lead screw size on performance of EMB in terms of the generated clamping force and system response time. The accuracy and reliability of the proposed model were statistically verified using ANOVA. In addition, its performance was verified by comparing its results with the same input data used in previously validated experimental and mathematical-based simulation models from the literature review. The proposed model can be used to improve the performance of EMB systems and facilitate comparisons among different EMB designs.
