ABSTRACT
The method of solution is to first solve for the unknown parameters in the expressions for the particular pressure distribution selected from either equations (5.11) or (5.12) on the primary shoe such that the condition
(5-15)
is satisfied. Since this condition is independent of the lining pressure, that quantity may be found from the relation
(5-16)
in which the external moment Ma is specified and where subscript 1 denotes the corresponding moment for the primary shoe.
