High-performance vehicles are designed this way to centralize the center of gravity, with weight distribution as close to the center of gravity as possible, which aids in vehicle handling. Below is an introduction to automotive braking: 1. Introduction to Braking: Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, other transportation tools, or machinery. The general principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. The braking device, also known as a decelerator, is a mechanical braking device that can slow down the vehicle's speed. 2. Classification of Brakes: Drum brakes, advantages of drum brakes, disadvantages of drum brakes, disc brakes, etc.
