Sentences with phrase «pressure braking effect»

The massive star Sirius, for example, is just over twice as far away as Alpha Centauri — but because it shines some 25 times brighter than our sun, it offers a stronger radiation - pressure braking effect, allowing light sails to approach at much higher speeds.

Not exact matches

Antilock brakes use Hall effect transducers to detect changes in a car wheel's angular velocity, which can then be used calculate the appropriate braking pressure on each wheel.

The 7 - series» DSC includes a huge amount of sub-functions, including ABS (anti-lock brakes), ASC (stability control, including a separate mode for stabilizing a trailer), CBC (cornering brake control), DBC (Dynamic Brake Control, which recognizes panic situations and helps the driver to effect a full - braking panic stop with less pedal pressure), Brake Fade Compensation, Brake Drying (which applies the brakes slightly in wet conditions to keep the pads dry and thus ready for use), Brake Standby (which applies slight brake pressure in the event of a sudden lift from the gas, moving the brake pads up against the rotor for quicker response in a panic stop), Startoff Assistant (which prevents the 750i from rolling backwards down a hill as you start out), ACC Active Cruise Control (see below), and automatic brake hold (which holds the car at a stop even with the transmission in gear).

This aerodynamic device acts to define air flow at the rear with such precision that it negates the effect of disruptive air swirl and keeps the braking effect of negative pressure to a minimum.

For example, DSC works to counteract the slightest brake fading effect even at extremely high brake temperatures by increasing brake pressure accordingly.

Normal pressure exerted on the pedal produces a gradual and even braking effect, while more energetic pressure (as in sports driving) yields a keener braking response, delivering at a specific instant a distinct increase in braking power.

The locking effect can vary between 0 and 100 percent, according to the driving situation, and reacts to the car's steering angle, accelerator position, brake pressure, engine torque, wheel speed and yaw rate.
