Abstract
Antilock braking system (ABS)
Safety system that prevents the wheels on a vehicle from locking up while braking.
Brake-by-wire
Technology to replace the traditional mechanical and hydraulic control systems with electronic control systems using electromechanical actuators and human–machine interfaces.
Brake controller
A microchip-based device which receives brake strength command from driver and feedback signals and generates control signals to control the mechanical and electric brake systems.
Braking energy
The energy consumed by the brake system of a vehicle.
Hybrid brake system
A vehicle brake system that uses both regenerative braking and mechanical fictional brake.
Regenerative braking
Braking device of a vehicle which can absorb vehicle braking energy and store the absorbed braking energy into an energy storage and then uses it for later traction.
