Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling operation of a trailer brake system associated with an agricultural vehicle-trailer combination. A coupling force between the vehicle and the trailer is determined and used to control operation of the trailer brake system in dependence thereon. A primary control strategy is used in dependence on the determined coupling force being within a coupling force range; and one or more secondary control strategies are used in dependence on the determined coupling force being outside of the coupling force range.

Abstract: A device and a method for controlling vehicle speed in a vehicle equipped with cruise control when the vehicle is travelling downhill. The method involves driving a vehicle downhill with the cruise control set to a first brake set speed value; detecting a current vehicle speed; applying a brake torque using at least one auxiliary brake to maintain the first brake set speed, which brake torque is dependent on a currently engaged gear; detecting a manual request for a downshift from a currently engaged gear to a lower gear, in order to decrease vehicle speed; and determining if a downshift is permissible at the current vehicle speed. If a control unit determines that a downshift is not permissible, then the control unit is automatically arranged to apply a brake torque using at least a vehicle service brake to retard the vehicle speed; to retard the vehicle from a current, first vehicle speed to a lower, second vehicle speed at which a downshift to a lower gear is permissible; and to perform a downshift to a lower gear when the second vehicle speed is reached. The cruise control brake set speed is set to a second brake set speed that is lower than the first cruise control brake set speed value; and a brake torque using at least the auxiliary brake is applied if a detected current vehicle speed exceeds the second brake set speed.

Abstract: A vehicle comprising a power train, a drive train, a solar array, a sensor interface, a storage device and a processing device. The sensor interface may be configured to receive sensor data samples during operation of the vehicle. The storage device may be configured to store the sensor data samples over a number of points in time. The processing device may be configured to (i) analyze the sensor data samples stored in the storage device to detect a pattern, (ii) monitor an amount of solar power converted using the solar array, (iii) determine an energy usage for traveling a route based on the pattern and (iv) adjust an amount of power applied to the power train in response to the energy usage for traveling the route. The amount of power applied to the power train may be adjusted in response to the amount of solar power.

Abstract: A brake ECU of a vehicle braking control device, during execution of brake pressurization control, performs actuation restriction control that restricts actuation of a motor as an arbitrary upstream fluid pressure (M/C pressure) that is the brake pressure input from the M/C side of the brake fluid pressure control actuator becomes higher. The brake ECU has a threshold value changing unit that sets at least the starting threshold value at a high level when the upstream fluid pressure (M/C pressure) is high compared to when low, and as actuation restriction control actuates the motor to pump out the brake fluid from inside of the reservoirs when the reservoir fluid volume exceeds the starting threshold value, and stops the motor when the reservoir fluid volume equals the stop threshold value.
