  2. Brake tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_tester

    A roller brake tester is a method of allowing the dynamic assessment of the braking system of a motor vehicle, whilst the vehicle itself is in a static condition.This type of brake tester is normally used in UK garages when used as part of an inspection lane for the MOT test.

  3. Braking test track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braking_test_track

    The length of the braking test track at the Aldenhoven Testing Center is 150 m, which contains an asphalt and a ceramic pavement lane. Both lanes are 4 m wide and may be wetted as preferred. The braking test lane is surrounded on both sides by a safety zone. A 200 m access acceleration lane is also part of the braking test track. [3]

  4. Noise, vibration, and harshness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise,_vibration,_and...

    Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), also known as noise and vibration (N&V), is the study and modification of the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and trucks. While noise and vibration can be readily measured, harshness is a subjective quality, and is measured either via jury evaluations, or with analytical ...

  5. Brake check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_check

    Rear-end collision is a possible outcome from brake checking.. A brake check, also known as a brake test, occurs when a driver deliberately either taps on the brakes several times or slams hard on the pedal when moving in front of another vehicle, with the intention of causing the behind driver to either collide or take evasive action. [1]

  6. Torsional vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsional_vibration

    Torsional vibration is a concern in the crankshafts of internal combustion engines because it could break the crankshaft itself; shear-off the flywheel; or cause driven belts, gears and attached components to fail, especially when the frequency of the vibration matches the torsional resonant frequency of the crankshaft. Causes of the torsional ...

  9. Shock and vibration data logger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_and_vibration_data...

    A shock data logger or vibration data logger is a measurement instrument that is capable of autonomously recording shocks or vibrations over a defined period of time. Digital data is usually in the form of acceleration and time. The shock and vibration data can be retrieved (or transmitted), viewed and evaluated after it has been recorded.
