  2. Brake fluid pressure sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid_pressure_sensor

    The sensor has an input port to measure the hydraulic braking pressure and an electrical connector output for a wire connection for feeding the warning light. Some brake failures do not trip the sensor into a fault mode. A brake fluid pressure sensor is used in anti-lock braking system (ABS). ABS fault lights come on with unexpected wheel lock ...

  3. Vacuum servo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_servo

    In the US it is commonly called a brake booster. A vacuum servo, also known as a power booster or power brake unit, uses a vacuum, usually supplied by the engine, to multiply the driver's pedal effort and apply that effort to the master cylinder .

  4. Power brakes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

    The pressure exerted by the driver on the pedal is multiplied by the vacuum booster, which uses engine vacuum to pull the booster's rod and diaphragm forward toward the master cylinder. The forward travel of the rod causes the piston in the master cylinder to compress; this action pushes the brake fluid through the brake lines, which lead to ...

  5. List of drugs banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drugs_banned_by...

    Drugs with similar structures and biological activity are also banned because new designer drugs of this sort are always being developed in order to beat the drug tests. Caffeine, a stimulant known to improve performance, is currently not on the banned list. It was listed until 2004, with a maximum allowed level of 12 micrograms per millilitre ...

  8. Electronic brakeforce distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_brakeforce...

    The pressure of the rear wheels are approximated to the ideal brake force distribution in a partial braking operation. To do so, the conventional brake design is modified in the direction of rear axle overbraking, and the components of the ABS are used. EBD reduces the strain on the hydraulic brake force proportioning valve in the vehicle.

  9. Brake-by-wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake-by-wire

    SpeedE, an academic concept car developed for studying drive-by-wire technologies such as brake-by-wire. Brake-by-wire technology in the automotive industry is the ability to control brakes through electronic means, without a mechanical connection that transfers force to the physical braking system from a driver input apparatus such as a pedal or lever.
