2. Brake fade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

   Brake fade and rotor warping can be reduced through proper braking technique; when running down a long downgrade that would require braking simply select a lower gear (this is required for many trucks on steep grades in the U.S.). Also, periodic, rather than continuous application of the brakes will allow them to cool between applications.

3. Disc brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_brake

   On automobiles, disc brakes are often located within the wheel A drilled motorcycle brake disc. The development of disc-type brakes began in England in the 1890s. In 1902, the Lanchester Motor Company designed brakes that looked and operated similarly to a modern disc-brake system even though the disc was thin and a cable activated the brake pad. [4]

   Front brakes used 11.0 in (280 mm) vented disc brakes with extra thick rotors to prevent warping, and 10.6 in (270 mm) non-vented disc brakes in the rear, with single piston calipers (57mm front, 36mm rear). 17 x 6 inch cast aluminum wheels were used, with an offset of 43mm, along with 205/50/17 Michelin Pilot Sport performance tires. The ...

6. Intermeshing-rotor helicopter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermeshing-rotor_helicopter

   Unmanned, remote control or optionally piloted variant An intermeshing-rotor helicopter (or synchropter ) is a helicopter with a set of two main rotors turning in opposite directions, with each rotor mast mounted with a slight angle to the other, in a transversely symmetrical manner, so that the blades intermesh without colliding.

7. DC injection braking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_injection_braking

   Large rotors and loads with a high moment of inertia may take a significant amount of time to stop through internal friction alone. To reduce downtime, or possibly as an emergency safety feature, DC injection braking can be used to quickly stop the rotor. A DC injection brake system can be used as an alternative or addition to a friction brake ...
