Abstract
An electric motor is controlled based on a target energization amount calculated based on an operation amount of a braking operation member. Based on the operation amount, it is determined whether or not an inertia compensation control for compensating for the influence of the inertia of a brake actuator is necessary. When the inertia compensation control is determined to be necessary, an inertia compensation energization amount compensating for the influence of the inertia of the brake actuator is calculated using a time-series pattern set in advance based on the maximum response of the brake actuator. Using the inertia compensation energization amount, the target energization amount is calculated. The vehicle brake control device causes an electric motor to generate a braking torque and appropriately compensates for the influence of the inertia of the entire device including the inertia of the electric motor.
