Emergencybraking often entails the risk of ending up rear-ended by a following vehicle whoseoperator failed to analyze the situation soon enough. That can be particularly bad news for motorcyclists, ...

The complete line of CDBR-D dynamic brakes work with braking resistors to dissipate excess energy produced by motors controlled by the company’s Impulse variable-frequency drives. Removing this energy ...

We’re suckers for videos that explain dry-as-dust science in visually dynamic ways. General Electric’s “GE Show” bats one out of the park by explaining hybrid dynamic braking — a system that ...

Tesla continuously works to make its cars safer. In a recent Tesla Model 3 update to owners in Europe, Tesla added features like Sentry Mode, Dog Mode, Peak Power Increase, and Navigate on Autopilot.

Hydraulic retarders play a critical role in modern vehicle braking systems by converting kinetic energy into thermal energy through the fluid dynamic interactions within the retarder system. Their ...

David Kuchta, Ph.D. has 10 years of experience in gardening and has read widely in environmental history and the energy transition. An environmental activist since the 1970s, he is also a historian, ...

The world is full of feel-bad news. Here’s something to feel good about: Automatic emergency braking is one of the great car safety-tech success stories. Auto-braking systems, called AEB for short, ...

Friction behavior is one of the most critical factors in brake system design and performance. For up-front design and system modeling it is desirable to be able to describe a lining's frictional ...

Providing thermal transfers in load dump, capacitor discharge applications, the WDBR Series dynamic braking resistor allow motion-control designers to replace bulky wire-wound devices with a ...

April 17 (Reuters) - The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Wednesday it had upgraded its probe into reports of unexpected activation of automatic emergency braking ...
