Increased deceleration in high-speed and high-density train operation worsens riding comfort and frequently causes wheel skids. This requires introduction of control engeneering to upgrade control performance of the brake system on rolling stock. We are now studying a control method for mechanical brake that uses friction, a sort of nonlinear element as the basis of brake force. One of our targets is to develop a brake control device that can control deceleration or jerk and decelerating pattern to optimize riding comfort and prevents wheel skids. We are designing a deceleration feedback control system as a tracking control method. This paper introduces simulation and experimental results of this control system.
