Abstract
The invention relates to a method of managing a braking system architecture for an airplane fitted with brakes having electromechanical actuators, in which some of the actuators are connected to a battery assembly of the airplane and other actuators are not connected to the battery assembly of the airplane, which method comprises a step of controlling at least one of the actuators that is not connected to the battery assembly to cause it to exert a force equal to a unit holding force, which force is determined independently of any braking demand from the pilot. The invention also provides an architecture specially adapted to implement the method.
