Anti-lock brake system design based on an adaptive second order sliding mode controller. World Automation Congress (WAC).978-1-4673-4497-52154-4824http://hdl.handle.net/11117/3271The aim of this paper is to propose a second order sliding mode controller for a brake system. The main objective of the controller is to induce anti-lock feature by means of tracking the slip rate of the wheel, ensuring a shorter distance in the braking process and improving the vehicle safety. The closed-loop system is robust in presence of external disturbances and parameter variations. To show the performance of the proposed design, a simulation study is carried on, where results show good performance of the antilock-brake system.engRobust ControlBrake ControlSliding-mode Controlinfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferencePaper
