Re: How to determine rolling resistance.

I am aware of the theory. I am looking for something or someone to explain it in terms of physics and math. The theory is simple I am aware that all transmissions has drag etc. I have taken a full year of physics in college and 2 full years of math in college. I am thoroughly equipped, I just would rather not derive it myself since it's been done already. I have looked around the internet already but to no avail, perhaps I am referring to it by the incorrect name.

I am unsure how to be sure everybody knows what I am talking about. If you look on wikipedia for rolling resistance it speaks of wheel/contact surface deformation. I am not speaking of this. I am look for a simple way to mathematically model, (or measure) the max speed of a body with n number of wheels and a torque T being applied to m wheels. Or something similar if this exactly isn't so easy.
