1. “ TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM” A TOPIC SEMINAR ON

2. Traction Traction Control System Types of TRAC System INTRODUCTION:

3. HISTORY: 4-wheel drive Differentials Antilock Braking System TRAC System

4. Differentials: Advantages: Power to most traction Simple in Action Wheel locking Disadvantages: Wear out Cost to build. Special lubricants. LITERATURE:

5. LITERATURE: 4-wheel Drive Systems Advantages: Reducing slip No delay No Driver intervention required Disadvantages: More hardware Not economic Performance drop

6. LITERATURE Anti lock Braking System: Advantages: Wheel locking is avoided. Sudden throttle control. Disadvantages: Not effective at cornering. Maintenance issues. Not effective at Skidding.

7. BLOCK DIAGRAM OF TRAC: PROCESS

8. CASE STUDIES: Limited slip differential 1971 - Buick division of GM “MaxTrac” Honda ST in 1992, Kawasaki Concours 14 in 2010 Mitsubishi's modern Active Skid and Traction Control 2006 “Theory of ground vehicles” - Prof. Jo Yung Wong, Carleton University.

9. SCOPE: Self learning systems Track conditions Tire condition Internal settings Desired TRAC control level

10. TRAC SYSTEM: TOYOTA SUPRA MARK IV

11. TRAC WHEEL SPEED CONTROL: wheel speed control against time

12. BENEFITS OF TRACTION CONTROL: Avoiding accidents Sudden twists and turns Slippage of the wheels Stopping distances Driving a powerful car Most gripping.

13. APPLICATIONS: In road cars In race cars In motorcycles In off road vehicles safety

14. DISADVANTAGES: wear on brake components. Holds performance driving. Allows 10 % wheel slip. Its banned in F1 racing.
