Brake judder is defined as disc or drum deformation-induced vibration which typically occurs at frequency less than 200 Hz. There are two types of brake judder namely, low speed (cold) judder and high speed (hot) judder. These two types of judder are often causing the brake pedal, steering wheel, suspension or chassis to vibrate. Consequently, it will affect comfort level of the driver and passengers. This paper focuses on the experimental investigation of low speed brake judder. In doing so, a laboratory test rig consists of disc brake unit, steering and suspension systems was used to assess level of brake judder vibration at different wheel turning angles. It was found that brake judder generated slightly high vibration at the steering wheel in the axial direction which led to a little uncomfortable feeling to the driver.

In order to improve low-speed flexibility and high-speed handling and stability of multi-axle vehicle, a double-phase steering system was designed with planetary gear system. An in-phase steering mode is used when steering wheel turning in small angle. A adverse-phase steering mode is used when steering wheel turning in large angle. A five-axle vehicle simulation model was established with software ADAMS/VIEW. The research of all-wheel steering and non-all-wheel steering for high speed and low speed was respectively processed. When running in high speed, the lateral acceleration and yaw rate of the centroid are significantly lower when rear wheels steering in in-phase mode than the rear wheels not turning, which makes the possibility of roll and drift decrease, when vehicle overtaking in high-speed. When running in low speed, compared with rear wheels not steering, when rear wheels sreering, lateral acceleration increased by only 12.8%, yaw rate is 17.3% higher, diameter of the centroid trajectory is reduced by 12.9%, which greatly increases the mobility and flexibility of the multi-axle vehicle when turning at low speed.

The need to devise a low-speed balancing method for balancing high-speed rotors was recognized and addressed. In this paper, a scheme that combines both the influence coefficients and modal balancing techniques is presented. The scheme is developed for low-speed balancing of high-speed rotors, and relies on knowledge of the modal characteristics of the rotor. The conditions for applicability of the method were stated in the light of the experientially estimated rotor deflection mode shapes. An experimental test rig of a flexible rotor was constructed to verify the applicability and reliability of the low-speed balancing scheme.

In the steer by wire system of vehicle, a joystick can instead of the steering wheel. A control algorithm based on variable steering ratio is developed on the basis of vehicle speed and joystick steering angle. By verifying the control algorithm with the vehicle model from CarSim, it shows that this proposed algorithm can effective carry out steering intention of drivers, which enhance the steer comfort in low speed driving and steer handling in high speed driving and effectively improve the vehicle maneuverability.

To introduce a new type of electric power steering system, the structure and working principle of the system were introduced, and the models of the car, the tire and the steering system were established. The assist characteristic of the power steering and the ideal steering ratio were also designed and optimized. At last, the simulation tests were carried out. The double planetary wheel mechanism is the most important component of the system. With this mechanism, the system synthesizes the force or motion from the steering wheel and the motor. So the power steering and a small steering ratio can be provided at a low speed, and the steering ratio can be changed initiatively at a medium or high speed. Whats more, the steering ability still exists when there is a fault in the system. The simulation results show this steering system can effectively improve the steering portability, low-speed sensitivity, and the vehicle handling stability.

Dynamics model of mechanical system and hydraulic system inclued electro-hydraulic proportional valve of Proportional-Valve Hydraulic Power Steering were established.and simulation model of assisted characteristic of PVHPS system was build .Response characteristic of proportional valve bypass flow was analyzed at different speed, and higher of the speed, greater of the flow in the bypass flow is . Steering wheel torque increases gradually as vehicle speed increases at the same wheel angle, and driver's better steering road feeling can be ensured. As wheel steering torque increases, assisted oil pressure increases and higher the speed is , slowly oil pressure increases, and assisted oil pressure increases quickly at low-speed steering condition, and increases slowly at high-speed condition,which meet the requirement of low-speed steering agility and high-speed road feeling.

we test the hypothesis that naming an object depicted in a picture, and reading aloud an object’s name, are affected by the object’s speed. We contend that the mental representations of everyday objects and situations include their speed, and that the latter influences behavior in instantaneous and systematic ways. An important corollary is that high-speed objects are named faster than low-speed objects despite the fact that object speed is irrelevant to the naming task at hand. The results of a series of 7 studies with pictures and words support these predictions.
