Discussion on: “Combining Slip and Deceleration Control for Brake-by-wire Control Systems: A Sliding-mode Approach”

Abstract

To summarize, several interesting aspects can be underlined in this paper: the control law is easy to use and is efficient on consistent simulations, performances are insensitive to actuator bandwidth and solid theoretical statements are derived throughout the paper. In this sense, the approach presented in this paper provides an original and efficient solution to brake control. Concerning further investigations, robustness with respect to the wheel radius and parametric uncertainty should be explored. Then a suspension strategy that works in the same sense as the braking one may be an interesting way to explore (see [3]). Finally, implementation on a full model involving load transfer would be interesting to validate the design in a global chassis framework.
