Question Breakaway thrust

I am a student and am building an acf taxing emission model for congested airports taking into consideration the stop-go-stop-go condition . I need an equation for calculating breakaway thrust.

Every time an acf stops while taxing it has to burn up extra fuel to generate the breakaway thrust for moving again. This extra fuelburn has never been accounted for, in surface emission calculations. Now I need help to come up with an equation for breakaway thrust from which I will be calculate the excess fuelburn and resulting emissions.

I have read stuff posted by XPMorten. Is there a paper/documentation that I can read to know more about breakaway thrust, friction coefficient, drag etc related to aircrafts?
