BARECKI, Z.  and  SCIESZKA, S. F.. A Mathematical Model of the Brake Shoe and the Brake Path System. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1987, vol.3, pp.13-17. ISSN 2309-8988.

In this paper an improved mathematical model of the brake shoe - path system for post type drum brakes is presented. The model enables calculation of such brake properties as the brake factor, the pressure distribution between the brake shoe and path and the braking torque. The model comprises elastic properties of the brake elements and the preliminary geometry of contact between them. These properties are not taken into account in presently used methods of calculation.
