Abstract: The present invention provides a control method for automatic holding, a vehicle's brake system and a brake control module thereof. The vehicle's brake system comprises two brake control modules and electromechanical brakes controlled by the brake control modules, a drive motor and a drive motor controller for controlling the drive motor. The control method comprises: after the vehicle transitions from moving to stationary, controlling the electromechanical brakes to continuously provide a brake torque, wherein the brake torque is a sum of the effective brake torque and a margin brake torque; and continuously outputting a drive-off signal to the drive motor controller to control the drive motor not to provide drive torque; until a driver requested drive torque is continuously increased to a critical torque which is close to the effective brake torque.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a braking technology of a vehicle, and in particular to a high fault tolerance brake system for a vehicle, a control method for the brake system, and a computer readable medium. The brake system comprises two control modules (211, 212) and an electric brake device (131; 132) provided on each wheel of the vehicle. Each of the electric brake devices (131; 132) may receive brake requests from the two control modules (211, 212) generated in response to a brake demand to brake or release a corresponding wheel. The brake system may further comprise a raw signal acquisition module (311) for acquiring a raw signal indicating the brake demand and directly transmitting the raw signal to at least one of the electric brake devices (131; 132) for verifying the brake requests. The present invention may improve fault tolerance of the vehicle brake system.

Abstract: This present disclosure provides a controlling method for an actuator (104), an actuator (104), and an electromechanical brake system of brake technology. The controlling method comprises: receiving a brake demand; controlling an electric motor (108) based on the brake demand; if the brake demand satisfies a preset stationary condition within a preset period, controlling a brake force holding device (108) to lock a shaft. In this way, frequent variations of the brake demand caused by interference from ambient disturbance or the driver's unsteady brake instructions may be prevented so that the actuator can be locked timely, thereby maintaining a continuous brake torque output with low power consumption or zero power consumption to provide a continuous brake force to the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for determining the yaw tendency of a vehicle is hereby presented. The method comprises the steps of determining the propulsion states of one or several wheels of said vehicle, and estimating yaw moment variations of a vehicle from said propulsion states, wherein said yaw moment variations are induced from altered propulsion states between at least two of the wheels of said vehicle.
