The invention belongs to the technical field of urban railway vehicle control, and relates to an urban railway vehicle braking force management method distributing braking force based on TCMS. According to the management method, electric braking force is used preferably, air braking serves as the supplementary for insufficient braking force, electric braking is in real-time coordinated matching with air braking, air braking is not used under the situation that the electric braking capability is enough, and the purposes that energy is fed back to a power grid to the maximum degree, and abrasion of a shoe is greatly reduced are achieved. When the electric braking capability is not enough, the air braking is preferably supplemented to a trailer and a motor vehicle with the electric braking fault, and after the maximum adhesion is reached, the purposes that the air braking is averagely supplemented on the motor vehicle with the normal electric braking, the average distribution of braking force for all vehicles is achieved, the interaction force among the vehicles is reduced, and the service life of the vehicles is prolonged are achieved. In the braking process and the starting process, the applying of the braking force is linearly controlled according to the whole vehicle impulsion limiting requirement, the vehicle impulsion is reduced, and conversion among traction force, electric braking and air braking is smooth.
