2. Regenerative braking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_braking

   Regenerative and friction braking must both be used, creating the need to control them to produce the required total braking. The GM EV-1 was the first commercial car to do this. In 1997 and 1998, engineers Abraham Farag and Loren Majersik were issued two patents for this brake-by-wire technology.

3. 2009–2011 Toyota vehicle recalls - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009–2011_Toyota_vehicle...

   An internal NHTSA memo indicated that the issue was the "short delay" in regenerative braking when hitting a bump, resulting in increased stopping distance. [97] On February 6, 2010, Toyota said that it had fixed the braking problem on Prius models built since late January 2010 via a software update for the ABS to improve brake response. [2]

4. 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-mechanical brakes.

5. DC injection braking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_injection_braking

   A DC injection brake system can be used as an alternative or addition to a friction brake system. DC injection brakes only require a small module located with the other motor switchgear and/or drivers, mounted in a remote and convenient location, whereas a friction brake must be mounted somewhere on the rotating system.

6. 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

7. Eddy current brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_brake

   Disk electromagnetic brakes are used on vehicles such as trains, and power tools such as circular saws, to stop the blade quickly when the power is turned off.A disk eddy current brake consists of a conductive non-ferromagnetic metal disc attached to the axle of the vehicle's wheel, with an electromagnet located with its poles on each side of the disk, so the magnetic field passes through the ...
