  • Publication number: 20240308484
    Abstract: A computer system including processing circuitry configured to: determine, during a braking event of a vehicle, an oscillation amplitude of a currently oscillating part of the vehicle; perform an amplitude comparison by comparing the determined oscillation amplitude with a predefined reference value; receive a brake request value indicative of a desired total brake torque or total brake force; perform a brake request comparison by comparing the received brake request value with a predefined brake request value; and control a brake distribution between front axle brakes and rear axle brakes of the vehicle based on the amplitude comparison and the brake request comparison, wherein the brake distribution is in the form of a brake torque distribution of said desired total brake torque or a brake force distribution of said desired total brake force. There is also disclosed a computer-implemented method.
