Advanced ABS
Yaw S tability
Yaw stability counteracts the tendency of a vehicle to
spin about its vertical axis. During operation, if the
friction at the tires is not suffi cient to oppose lateral
(side) forces, one or more of the tires can slide, causing
the truck/tractor to spin. These are referred to as
under-steer or over-steer situations. Generally, shorter
wheelbase vehicles (tractors, for instance) have less
yaw stability, while longer wheelbase vehicles (straight
trucks) have greater natural yaw stability. Factors that
infl uence yaw stability are: wheelbase, suspension,
steering geometry, weight distribution front to rear,
and vehicle tracking.
Stability Systems
During operation, the ECU of the Bendix Advanced
ABS system constantly compares performance
models to the vehicle’s actual movement, using the
wheel speed sensors of the ABS system, as well as
lateral, yaw, and steering angle sensors. If the vehicle
shows a tendency to leave an appropriate travel path,
or if critical threshold values are approached, the
system will intervene to assist the driver.

Stability System
The ESP

functionality of the Bendix Advanced ABS
system responds to a wide range of low- to high-
friction surface scenarios including rollover, jackknife
and loss of control. It is the recommended system for
all power vehicles and especially critical for tractors
pulling trailers. In the case of vehicle slide (over-steer
or under-steer situations), the system will remove the
throttle and then brake one or more of the “four corners
of vehicle” (in addition to potentially braking the trailer),
thus applying a counter-force to better align the vehicle
with an appropriate path of travel. For example, in an
over-steer situation, the system applies the “outside”
front brake; while in an under-steer situation, the
“inside” rear brake is applied.
In the case of a potential roll event, the system will
remove the throttle and quickly apply the brakes to
slow the vehicle combination below the threshold.
Driving Scenario:
Driving speed exceeds the
threshold, and the resulting
lateral force causes the vehicle
to slide or jackknife on lower-
friction surfaces.
Action by Bendix Stability
Solutions:
System applies the appropriate
brakes to reduce speed and
properly align the vehicle, thereby
reducing the tendency to slide or
jackknife.
