Analysis of truck braking using multiple simulations

Abstract

In the field of road vehicles, the merging of mechanical assemblies and electronic computing architecture has become indispensable. In the present paper, a thorough study of the braking performance of heavy goods vehicles is presented. Operating conditions and other influencing factors during use create multiple combinations that influence the behavior and performance of braking systems in different ways. However, for such a speed of development, the dedicated means of research become insufficient, thus new study methods are needed to guarantee complex results with a minimum of consumed resources. Such a variant of the study is also addressed in this paper, where the results are obtained based on multiple simulations, carried out simultaneously, but in a much shorter time than in the experimental cases and with a large volume of data.
