Abstract
Systems and methods for dynamically distributing brake torque among a plurality of brakes of a vehicle are provided. In one example, a method includes detecting a braking distribution condition; calculating a weight distribution for the vehicle based on a longitudinal acceleration and a lateral acceleration associated with the vehicle to provide a calculated weight distribution; calculating a brake torque limit for each of the plurality of brakes based on the calculated weight distribution to provide calculated brake torque limits; calculating a target brake torque for each of the plurality of brakes based on a driver-demanded brake torque to provide target brake torques; and comparing the calculated brake torque limits with corresponding target brake torques.
