  2. Threshold braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_braking

    Threshold braking or limit braking is a driving technique most commonly used not only in motor racing, but also practiced in road vehicles to slow a vehicle at the maximum rate using the brakes. [1] The technique involves the driver controlling the brake pedal (or lever) pressure to maximize the braking force developed by the tires .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_communication

    Business communication is the act of information being exchanged between two-parties or more for the purpose, functions, goals, or commercial activities of an organization. [1] Communication in business can be internal which is employee-to-superior or peer-to-peer, overall it is organizational communication.

  4. Skid (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_(automobile)

    Threshold braking maintains a steady braking force with slight (10-20%) slip, around or just below the point of maximum tire grip force. Cadence braking accepts that holding the threshold braking limit is exceptionally hard, and relies on manual manipulation of braking force to rapidly go just above and below the skid point, essentially ...

  7. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

    An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a safety anti-skid braking system used on aircraft and on land vehicles, such as cars, motorcycles, trucks, and buses. [1] ABS operates by preventing the wheels from locking up during braking, thereby maintaining tractive contact with the road surface and allowing the driver to maintain more control over the ...

  8. Outage probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outage_probability

    In Information theory, outage probability of a communication channel is the probability that a given information rate is not supported, because of variable channel capacity. Outage probability is defined as the probability that information rate is less than the required threshold information rate.

  9. Platoon (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platoon_(automobile)

    Major automotive and technology companies, such as Toyota, Volvo, Baidu, or Alphabet, [20] are actively filing patents for various aspects of platooning, including V2V communication protocols, control systems and safety mechanisms. Between 2014 and 2023, the number of published patent families per year increased from less than 200 to over 1,000.
