  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. Eddy current brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_brake

    The N700 Series Shinkansen abandoned eddy current brakes in favour of regenerative brakes, since 14 of the 16 cars in the trainset used electric motors. In regenerative brakes, the motor that drives the wheel is used as a generator to produce electric current, which can be used to charge a battery, enabling the energy to be reused.

  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. AMC Amitron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_Amitron

    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]

  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.

  7. Braking distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braking_distance

    Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point when its brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop. It is primarily affected by the original speed of the vehicle and the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road surface, [Note 1] and negligibly by the tires' rolling resistance and vehicle's air drag.
