Abstract |
Brakes are implemented in cars to stop the vehicle. The increase in number of deaths and accidents is due to brake failure. Brake failures mainly occur due to brake lining failures and results in pressure loss . The aim of our paper is to diagnose faulty braking system and application of an auxiliary secondary braking system in case of brake failures. We can achieve it by using sensors and dual braking units. A pressure transducer sensor monitors the pressure in brake lining. When the primary hydraulic disc brake fails , the sensor detects the pressure loss and gives warning signal to the driver and also activates power supply to the secondary braking unit which is a hub motors in rear wheels . This functions as a secondary braking unit and helps the driver to stop the vehicle and thus ensures safety of the passengers. | |||||||||
