Simulation of pneumatics in brake systems

Pneumatic brake systems use pressurized air to apply the brakes and are used in trucks, amongst other vehicles. Due to the compressibility of the air, there is a time delay from the push-down of the brake pedal to the attainment of the desired brake effect. The time for the pressure in the brake cyl...
