Recorded brake evaluation tests in automobiles and in dual-brake inertia dynamometer show continual transfer of torque among several brakes; individual brakes seldom exert designed relative braking torque, because coefficient of friction is seldom same in each; experimental results are given to show torque transfer caused by fade following high temperatures and by recovery following lowered temperatures and wear; differential equations are derived expressing decrease in coefficient of friction as function of time and temperature rise induced by frictional work; solutions show torque transfer similar to that observed.
