Anti lock braking system (ABS): It prevents the wheels from locking
while you are braking
A typical anti locking braking system (ABS) is composed of a central electronic unit, which has four speed
sensors (one for each wheel), and two or more hydraulic valves on the brake circuit. The electronic unit
will constantly monitor the rotation speed of each of the wheels. When it senses that any number of the
wheels might be rotating slower than the others, which will bring it to lock, it will move the valves to
decrease the pressure on the braking circuit. This will reduce the braking force on that wheel and it will
cause a pulsing feeling through the brake pedal

Smart Buildings Make Smooth Moves
Lakshmi Sandhana 08.31.06
What if buildings could function like living systems, altering their shapes
in response to changing weather conditions or the way people use them?
That's the vision of a new breed of architects who are working on what
they think is the future of architecture -- "responsive structures" that
observe their internal and external environment and change form to suit
any situation
