Brake control apparatus for vehicle

摘要

Electric motor control is based on a target energization amount calculated using a braking operation member operation amount. A state quantity is acquired as an actual value, indicating an actual actuation state of a movable member located in a power transmission path from the electric motor to a friction member. Using the operation amount, it is determined whether or not inertia compensation control is necessary, which compensates for the inertia influence of a brake actuator during electric motor deceleration. “A target value corresponding to the actual value” is determined as a reference value, which is calculated based on the operation amount at a time when inertia compensation control is necessary. Based on the actual and reference values, “an inertia compensation energization amount for decreasing the target energization amount to compensate for the influence of inertia” is calculated, and the target energization amount is adjusted using the inertia compensation energization amount.
