A non-transitory computer readable storage medium is disclosed having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: determine whether an aircraft wheel brake is capable of performing a future rejected take-off event. The determination includes determining from a rejected take-off energy parameter and a set of brake parameters whether a predicted mass of the brake is sufficient to perform the future rejected take-off event. Further, a method for determining whether an aircraft wheel brake is capable of performing a future rejected take-off event is disclosed.

A vehicle has a frame, a straddle seat, front right and left wheels, a rear wheel, a steering assembly, a motor, front right and left brakes, a rear brake, and an electronic brake control unit. The electronic brake control unit has a pump, a valve box and an electronic controller. The electronic controller is electronically connected to the pump, and valves of the valve box for controlling their operation. A hand brake lever actuates a first master cylinder and thereby actuates the front brakes through the valve box. A foot brake lever actuates a second master cylinder and thereby actuates the rear brake through the valve box.

A braking method for a vehicle is provided. The method includes the following steps: obtaining a first state information of the vehicle, where the first state information includes a vehicle mass and a deceleration required by braking; calculating a braking torque required by the vehicle according to the first state information, and controlling an output of an electric braking torque according to the braking torque required by the vehicle; obtaining a current vehicle speed of the vehicle and a maximum electric braking exit speed; and; controlling, if the deceleration required by braking of the vehicle changes to zero, the vehicle to unload the electric braking torque when the current vehicle speed is less than the maximum electric braking exit speed. A braking device for a vehicle and a vehicle are further provided.

A vehicle includes a communicator that is mounted on the vehicle to perform wireless communication with a server and a controller operates the communicator to transmit an accident reception request signal and image data acquired by another vehicle to the server when the vehicle has an accident with an accident target vehicle. The controller operates the communicator to receive a fault ratio from the server when the server generates fault ratio data between the vehicle and the accident target vehicle based on the image data.
