Abstract
A braking system includes: brake circuits independently activated and deactivated and when activated apply braking force at respective wheels; a braking stability module detecting an issue or a failure with a first one of the brake circuits where an unexpected amount of braking torque is being applied as compared to an amount of braking torque applied at a second one of the brake circuits, and mitigating effect of the unexpected amount of braking torque on a yaw rate of the vehicle by i) adjusting the braking torque of the first one of the brake circuits, ii) adjusting braking torque of the second one of the brake circuits, and/or iii) deactivating the first one of the brake circuits and modulating braking torque of the second one of the brake circuits, to compensate for the unexpected amount of braking torque.
