The longitudinal braking dynamics of a two-wheel vehicle model on an incline are considered using techniques from nonlinear dynamics. The model is planar and incorporates the coupled dynamics of two independently braked wheels and the vehicle body, and takes into account the slip dynamics of each wh...
