MATLAB: Simmechanics model

simmechanicssimulink

Hello! I have 4 bodies (plane, base and two wheels) at simmechanics model. Two wheels connected by base as revolute at this model. And base conneted to plane as planar. Which actuators and drivers I need to connect to this model that wheels slid on a plane?
Thank you!

There is no block in SimMechanics to direction compute friction forces between wheels and ground.
Typically, what you need to do is to use SimMechanics Sensors, compute the wheel-ground interaction in Simulink and apply the result to SimMechanics using Actuator blocks.
