Abstract
A brake control system which provides both adaptive braking operation and traction control operation includes a brake lining temperature prediction mechanism which enables the control system either to permit traction control operation or to disable traction control operation so that the brake linings will not be worn out prematurely by traction control operation when the linings are above a temperature threshold.
