  "term": "Disc brake",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "A braking system that uses calipers to squeeze brake pads against a rotating disc, or rotor, to create friction and slow down a vehicle. This design dissipates heat more effectively than drum brakes, leading to better stopping performance and resistance to fade. Most modern vehicles use disc brakes on all four wheels.",
