Real-Time Axle-Load Sensing and AI-Enhanced Braking-Distance Prediction for Multi-Axle Heavy-Duty Trucks

Published on 2026-02-03 by Duk Sun Yun, Byung Chul Lim @MDPI

Abstract: Accurate braking-distance prediction for heavy-duty multi-axle trucks remains challenging due to the large gross vehicle weight, tandem-axle interactions, and strong transient load transfer during emergency braking. Recent studies on tire&amp;ndash;road friction estimation, commercial-vehicle braking control (EBS/AEBS), and weigh-in-motion (WIM) sensing have highlighted that unmeasured vertical-load dynamics and time-varying friction are key sources of prediction uncertainty. To address thes[...]


Our summary: This study presents a framework for real-time axle-load sensing and AI-enhanced braking-distance prediction for heavy-duty trucks. It integrates dynamic load estimation with friction sensing and machine learning to improve prediction accuracy.
