Tests carried out on routes and hills of various slopes and circuit parameter describing type of route and manner of driving parameter defined; brake application and release speeds, brake line pressure and deceleration were measured; drag losses at given speeds were obtained and amount of energy dissipated at brakes calculated; work done by brakes per unit weight of vehicle was measured when motoring down hills and shown to be dependent on slope of hill; results of study were used to formulate test schedules to simulate normal, fast overload driving, and conditions encountered when motoring down hills and Alpine passes.
