An application of the brain limbic system-based control to the electromechanical brake system

Recently, many mechanical components of vehicles are being replaced by electrical or electromechanical parts. This change leads to the reduced weight, higher fuel efficiency, and simpler diagnosis. In particular, a reliable and robust electromechanical brake control system has been focused. So, this article investigates that an application of brain limbic system-based control, a bio-inspired control strategy, to an electromechanical brake system is suitable for dynamic and uncertain driving conditions. To do this end, control parameters are optimized through genetic algorithm. Results show the effectiveness of the suggested control method in terms of control speed, reference tracking, and robustness to the disturbance.
