  2. Overrun brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overrun_brake

    An overrun brake (called a surge brake when invented) is a brake system commonly used on small trailers, where the motion of the trailer with respect to the towing vehicle is used to actuate the brake. The early systems were fitted with a spring system which was not very effective.

  3. Emergency brake assist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_brake_assist

    By interpreting the speed and force with which the brake pedal is pushed, the system detects if the driver is trying to execute an emergency stop, and if the brake pedal is not fully applied, the system overrides and fully applies the brakes until the anti-lock braking system (ABS) takes over to stop the wheels locking up. [1]

  4. Signal passed at danger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_passed_at_danger

    The 'Train Stop System' pair of loops is located at the signal, and will activate the emergency brake if the train passes over them at any speed when the signal is at danger. TPWS has proved to be an effective system in the UK, [ citation needed ] and has prevented several significant collisions.

  7. Decelostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decelostat

    An example is a pneumatic Decelostat system that uses an actuator to control the braking sanding system. When the flywheel of the Decelostat detects a sharp deceleration of the wheel, the valve that relieves air pressure from the brake cylinder is actuated. At that time, the valve for the braking sanding is also actuated, delivering sand to the ...

  8. Active rollover protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Rollover_Protection

    An active rollover protection (ARP), is a system that recognizes impending rollover and selectively applies brakes to resist. [1] ARP builds on electronic stability control and its three chassis control systems already on the vehicle – anti-lock braking system, traction control and yaw control. ARP adds another function: detection of an ...

  9. Wheel slide protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_slide_protection

    It is used when braking and may be considered analogous to anti-lock braking (ABS) in cars. The system can also be used to control (or provide an input to) the traction system to control wheel spin when applying power in low adhesion conditions. “Low adhesion” on the rail potentially causes damage to train wheels and the rails.
