A Longitudinal Slip Tire Model for Brake Control Systems: Features and Uses in Simulation, Control Synthesis and Stability Analysis 2002-01-2949

A dynamical model of tire longitudinal slip, suitable for use in aircraft brake control system and antiskid design, is presented. The model differs from conventional mu–slip models in that it incorporates a single degree of freedom for tire stretch. Applications of the model in simulation, control synthesis, and stability analyses are described.
