It is said to be difficult even for a bus to secure the directional stability and shorten the braking distance by means of the ideal braking force distribution, since it is affected significantly by the friction coefficient between brake linings and drums. It, however, becomes clear through the theoretical analyses and many experiments that the optimum control of braking force distribution is achieved successfully by using a new device which consists of disc brakes at rear and drum brakes at front. The latter are equipted with specially designed wheel cylinders to mitigate self-energizing action. (Jensen)
