Sample text
Although both shoes have identical dimensions as far as brake factor calculations are concerned, their actual brake force production is different. Reasons for this difference are found in the change in pressure distribution between lining and drum in the case of the elastic brake shoe. As indicated by Eq. (2-4), in the case of a rigid shoe, the pressure distribution is approximated by p = Eaφsinα/dLo. An elastic shoe produces a pressure distribution that has higher pressure concentrations at or near the ends of the linings.
Therefore, the danger given by the product of hazard consequences and frequency is low relative to diagonal-split brake systems and brake fluid vaporization. We should, however, recognize that under abnormal yet somewhat foreseeable conditions, diagonal split systems may fail due to brake fluid vaporization. These abnormalities may result from improper parking brake release for both drum and disc brakes, dragging brake pads due to defective caliper design or maintenance, excessive braking on extended down grades, and lowering of the brake-fluid boiling-point temperature through a high water content.
