This paper presents a development of the Advanced Emergency Braking (AEB) Algorithm for passenger vehicles. The AEB is the system to slow the vehicle and mitigate the severity of an impact when a rear end collision probability is increased. To mitigate a rear end collision, the AEB comprises of a millimeter wave radar sensor, CCD camera and vehicle parameters of which are processed to judge the likelihood of a collision occurring. The main controller of the AEB algorithm is composed of the two control stage: upper and lower level controller. By using the collected obstacle information, the upper level controller of the main controller decides the control mode based not only on parametric division, but also on physical collision capability. The lower level controller determines warning level and braking level to maintain the longitudinal safety. To decide the braking level, Last Ponit To Brake and Steer (LPTB/LPTS) are compared with current driving statues. To demonstrate the control performance of the proposed AEBS algorithm's, closed-loop simulation of the AEBS was conducted by using the Matlab simlink and CarSim software.

The electric braking system obtains its braking force by a motor instead of the hydraulic brake which has been used in conventional automobile systems. Electric braking system is consisted of fewer numbers of components than hydraulic braking system, and it has effects of improved response and reduced braking distance for the ABS(Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC(Electronic Stability Control). This paper presents the BLAC motor drive system for Electro-Magnetic Brake(EMB). Proposed control system consists of the power converter for driving a motor and the digital control system for speed control, and the vector control is applied for fast torque response. It is verified through the simulation using Matlab/Simulink and experiment that the proposed BLAC drive system can be applied to EMB.

In this paper, method using electric braking from stop area to high-speed area was presented in order to improve air-brake. And electric braking method can be improved environmental problems, efficiency, economy, etc. Method for electrical complete braking are two ways that method of inserting series resistance between the motor and the inverter, and method of inverter output voltage increase. In this paper, use series resistance insert method because economical and easy to apply. In addition, Series resistor is used short circuit method for reduce the power loss. In improved efficiency and the laboratory environment for secure braking, resistance insert method and inverter output voltage increase method showed same characteristics in all areas.

Electric vehicles are widely produced from many car manufacturers around the world instead of internal combustion engine vehicle in order to respond a variety of environmental regulations. Also, they are applying for modular design method to develop plenty of the vehicles. And, both of these two issues will be an important trend to lead the future global automobile industries for a long time. In this paper, new brake architecture concept is proposed in order to respond to such a situation. First, physical interfaces between brake system like caliper, disc and other counter-parts are established for modular assembly. Second, we analyze effective factors of brake system for electric vehicles which need to reflect vehicle specifications such as total vehicle weight. Here, we consider ideal brake force by critical deceleration. Third, we simulate accumulated regenerative brake energy for two main driving modes to confirm to effectiveness for a variety of Electric Vehicle. Finally, we hope that it contributes to implement brake architecture for the development of Electric Vehicle platform through such a study.

Two major goals for chemical cleaning on the secondary side of nuclear steam generators are to remove sludge effectively and to minimize corrosion of base metals. In this work, electrochemical and sludge dissolution behaviors have been investigated in order to find out which parameters are critical and important during a copper removal process for chemical cleaning and to evaluate safety aspects and effectiveness of two major copper removal processes developed commercially in foreign countries. Hydrogen peroxide is vert effective for the process to use EDTA, NH$_4$OH and EDA at 38$^{\circ}C$ to control the potential of copper in a potential range sood for copper sludge removal. Corrosion rates for carbon steel SA 285 Gr.C and Alloy 600 are very small during this process if it is controlled properly. However, the corrosion rate of SA 285 Gr.C will be increased greatly if its corrosion potential is maintained below -450mV. The process to use EDA and ammonium carbonate is effective at 6$0^{\circ}C$ to dissolve copper sludge if the corrosion potential of copper can be controlled above -200mV. However, it is very difficult to raise the corrosion potential of copper to this range by air blowing and stirring.

In Korea, urban railway cars are typically maintained using the strategy of predictive maintenance. In an effort to overcome the limitations of the existing strategy, there is increased interest in adopting the condition-based maintenance strategy. In this study, a novel method is proposed to detect faults in the solenoid valves of the braking system in urban railway vehicles. We determined the key component (i.e., solenoid valve) that leads to braking system faults through the analysis of failure modes, effects, and criticality. Then, an equivalent circuit model was developed with the compensation of the temperature effect on solenoid coils. Finally, we presented how to detect faults with the equivalent circuit model and current signal measurements. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, we conducted a case study using real solenoid valves taken from urban railway vehicles. In summary, it was shown that the proposed method can be effective to detect faults in solenoid valves. We anticipate the outcome from this study can help secure the safety and reliability of urban railway vehicles.

After the 3rd level autonomous driving vehicle, the 4th and 5th level of autonomous driving technology is trying to maintain the optimal condition of the passengers as well as the perfect driving of the vehicle. However current autonomous driving technology is too dependent on visual information such as LiDAR and front camera, so it is difficult to fully autonomously drive on roads other than designated roads. Therefore this paper proposes a Braking Strength Calculation System (BSCS), in which a vehicle classifies road conditions using data other than visual information and calculates optimal braking strength according to road conditions and driving conditions. The BSCS consists of RCDM (Road Condition Definition Module), which classifies road conditions based on KNN algorithm, and BSCM (Braking Strength Calculation Module), which calculates optimal braking strength while driving based on current driving conditions and road conditions. As a result of the experiment in this paper, it was possible to find the most suitable number of Ks for the KNN algorithm, and it was proved that the RCDM proposed in this paper is more accurate than the unsupervised K-means algorithm. By using not only visual information but also vibration data applied to the suspension, the BSCS of the paper can make the braking of autonomous vehicles smoother in various environments where visual information is limited.
