  2. Regenerative braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_braking

    Because of the electrified vehicle architecture required for such a braking system, automotive regenerative brakes are most commonly found on hybrid and electric vehicles. This method contrasts with conventional braking systems, where excess kinetic energy is converted to unwanted and wasted heat due to friction in the brakes.

  3. Electromagnetic brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_brake

    Electromagnetic brakes or EM brakes are used to slow or stop vehicles using electromagnetic force to apply mechanical resistance (friction). They were originally called electro-mechanical brakes but over the years the name changed to "electromagnetic brakes", referring to their actuation method which is generally unrelated to modern electro ...

  4. Electric brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_brake

    Electric brake is an ambiguous term meaning more than one thing: Dynamic braking, Braking using magnetic currents either to charge a battery or waste as heat; Electric friction brake, Electrically controlled friction brake; Track brake; Regenerative brake; Eddy current brake, Braking using eddy currents

  5. Engine braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_braking

    A compression release brake (also known as a Jacobs brake or "jake brake"), is the type of brake most commonly confused with real engine braking; it is used mainly in large diesel trucks and works by opening the exhaust valves at the top of the compression stroke, so the large amount of energy stored in that compressed air is not returned to ...

  6. Brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

    A drum brake is a vehicle brake in which the friction is caused by a set of brake shoes that press against the inner surface of a rotating drum. The drum is connected to the rotating roadwheel hub. Drum brakes generally can be found on older car and truck models.

    The regenerative braking control was designed "to provide the same brake pedal "feel" as a conventional car. [13] This was the first use of regenerative braking technology in the U.S. automobile industry. [14] [15] Altogether, the system provided the car with a range of 150-mile (241 km) when traveling at 50 mph (80 km/h). [16]

  8. Retarder (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarder_(mechanical...

    Exhaust brakes are simpler in operation than an engine brake.Essentially, the exhaust pipe of the vehicle is restricted by a valve.This raises the pressure in the exhaust system, forcing the engine to work harder on the exhaust stroke of its cylinders, so again the engine is acting as an air compressor, with the power required to compress the air being withheld from the exhaust pipe, retarding ...

  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.
