Comparative Design Analysis of Motorcycle Braking Systems to Decide the Most Appropriate System According to The Traffic Context of Bangladesh

Abstract

The road accident rates in Bangladesh has increased by 42% since last 4 decades. Apart from all other socio-economic reasons, lack of appropriate usage of motorcycle braking system is one of the obvious reasons in this phenomenon. Hence, suitable braking system can contribute vastly in reducing accidents and accident rates. As there are lots of braking systems available for motorcycle in today’s market, it is difficult for general people to identify the proper vehicle which is compatible to the road and traffic conditions in our country. In this paper, design aspects and working methods of different types of motorcycle braking system have been scrutinized based on data and graphical analysis. And finally authors have tried to reach a probable decision about the most fit braking system in Bangladesh that can be incorporated with the motorcycle. The result of this paper can help further research on the country specific motorcycle braking system in Bangladesh as it represents a comparative analysis between Anti-Lock braking system and other systems. And eventually proved the Probable higher efficiency rate of ABS in terms of Theoretical discussion.
