(rail transport) Braking by the use of an electric traction motor as a generator when slowing a vehicle such as an electric or diesel-electric locomotive.

(motoring) The act of slowing down a motor vehicle using the retarding forces of the engine rather than the normal braking mechanism.

(rail transport, automotive, electrical engineering) A form of braking used on some electric vehicles in conjunction with the main braking system, where kinetic energy from braking is converted into electricity and fed back into the power supply by using the traction motors as generators.

A driving and motorcycling technique where the brakes are used beyond the entrance to a turn and then gradually released.

The average (mean) pressure which, if imposed on the pistons uniformly from the top to the bottom of each power stroke, would produce the measured (brake) power output.
