Method of managing parking braking in a braking system for a vehicle fitted with electric brakes

A method of managing parking braking in a braking system for a vehicle fitted with at least one electric brake including at least one electric actuator having a pusher actuated by an electric motor for selectively applying a force against friction elements of the brake, the method comprising executing on a controller the steps of:

• establishing a series of direct adjustment tables for parking braking, corresponding to braking situations at different energy levels;
• establishing a braking history of braking operations performed prior to applying parking braking;
• when applying parking braking, selecting a direct adjustment table corresponding to a braking situation preceding the application of parking braking as a function of the braking history;
• and
• directly adjusting a parking braking force in application with the selected direct adjustment table.
