Abstract

This paper presents the design and simulation of a magnetorheological brake (MRB) model that supports a van truck downhill without interfering with the traditional brake system available on this vehicle. A research brake model using rheological magnetic fluid, an intelligent material. The operation of MR fluid-based brakes has inherent advantages such as continuously changing dynamic range and fast response. The research presents the process of calculating and simulating the braking torque generated by this brake model. This research helps to open up a new direction for the traditional brake system in cars. Consequently, the safety of the movement of cars, in particular, and vehicles in general during downhill is compromised. Based on the simulation model, the effect of key parameters (operation conditions, MRB tooth tilt angle, MRB rotor thickness, and number of MRB teeth) on the brake torque was completely presented.
