   The Type 1936B design retained the hull design of the Type 1936A, but reverted to the lighter main armament of the Type 1936 to reduce topweight and improve seakeeping.The ships had an overall length of 127 metres (416 ft 8 in) and was 121.9 metres (399 ft 11 in) long at the waterline.

5. Power brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

   Brake calipers are one of the most important parts of a vehicle and are essential for your vehicle's ability to stop. The job of the caliper is to slow the vehicle's wheels using the friction they create against metal discs (rotors). They work by taking the pressure given by the master cylinder to force the pistons against the rotor.

6. 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 ...

   Rotor ship E-Ship 1. A rotor ship is a type of ship designed to use the Magnus effect for propulsion. The ship is propelled, at least in part, by large powered vertical rotors, sometimes known as rotor sails. German engineer Anton Flettner was the first to build a ship that attempted to tap this force for propulsion. "The idea worked, but the ...
