Brake lining

Brake linings are the consumable surfaces in brake systems, such as drum brakes and disc brakes used in transport vehicles.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Brake lining

Brake pad

Brake pads are a component of disc brakes used in automotive and other applications.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Brake pad

Brake shoe

A brake shoe is the part of a braking system which carries the brake lining in the drum brakes used on automobiles, or the brake block in train brakes and bicycle brakes.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Brake shoe

Dynamometer

A dynamometer or "dyno" for short, is a device for simultaneously measuring the torque and rotational speed (RPM) of an engine, motor or other rotating prime mover so that its instantaneous power may be calculated, and usually displayed by the dynamometer itself as kW or bhp.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Dynamometer

European Union

The European Union (EU) is a supranational political and economic union of member states that are located primarily in Europe.

See ECE Regulation 90 and European Union

Friction

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Friction

Motor vehicle

A motor vehicle, also known as a motorized vehicle, automotive vehicle, '''automobile,''' or road vehicle, is a self-propelled land vehicle, commonly wheeled, that does not operate on rails (such as trains or trams) and is used for the transportation of people or cargo.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Motor vehicle

Speed

In kinematics, the speed (commonly referred to as v) of an object is the magnitude of the change of its position over time or the magnitude of the change of its position per unit of time; it is thus a scalar quantity.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Speed

Trailer (vehicle)

A trailer is an unpowered vehicle towed by a powered vehicle.

See ECE Regulation 90 and Trailer (vehicle)

World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations

The World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations is a working party (WP.29) of the Inland Transport Committee (ITC) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE).
