2. Power steering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_steering

   Power steering is a system for reducing a driver's effort to turn a steering wheel of a motor vehicle, by using a power source to assist steering.. Hydraulic or electric actuators add controlled energy to the steering mechanism, so the driver can provide less effort to turn the steered wheels when driving at typical speeds, and considerably reduce the physical effort necessary to turn the ...

4. Cross-drive steering transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-drive_steering...

   A cross-drive steering transmission is a transmission, used in tracked vehicles to allow precise and energy-efficient steering. It consists of the following main parts: two identical single-stage planetary gearings, a differential, a hydraulic pump connected to the engine (similar to an oil pump of cars), a hydraulic motor powered by the ...

5. Electro-hydraulic actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-hydraulic_actuator

   Electro-hydraulic actuator. Electro-hydraulic actuators ( EHAs ), replace hydraulic systems with self-contained actuators operated solely by electrical power. EHAs eliminate the need for separate hydraulic pumps and tubing, because they include their own pump, [1] simplifying system architectures and improving safety and reliability.

6. Steering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering

   A Hydraulic Power Steering (HPS) uses hydraulic pressure supplied by an engine-driven pump to assist the motion of turning the steering wheel. Electric Power Steering (EPS) is more efficient than hydraulic power-steering, since the electric power-steering motor only needs to provide assistance when the steering wheel is turned, whereas the ...

7. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

   Electronic stability control ( ESC ), also referred to as electronic stability program ( ESP) or dynamic stability control ( DSC ), is a computerized technology [1] [2] that improves a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing loss of traction ( skidding ). [3] When ESC detects loss of steering control, it automatically applies the brakes ...
