Re: A Plane Problem

But you just posted a minute ago that you somehow "included" the friction between the wheel and the axel (and between the wheels and the track) with the "other (speed of track dependent)" frictional forces.

What are these "other (speed of track dependent)" frictional forces you talk of?

I put it to you, that the frictional force caused by the wheel on the track, is not velocity dependent. And you are saying otherwise. This is quite a fundamental modeling flaw - which isn't very elegant at all is it.
