Two-Dimensional Rigid-Body Collisions With Friction

Wang, Yu, Mason, Matthew T.·1992·Journal of Applied Mechanics

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of a two-dimensional rigid-body collision with dry friction. We use Routh’s graphical method to describe an impact process and to determine the frictional impulse. We classify the possible modes of impact, and derive analytical expressions for impulse, using both Poisson’s and Newton’s models of restitution. We also address a new class of impacts, tangential impact, with zero initial approach velocity. Some methods for rigid-body impact violate energy conservation principles, yielding solutions that increase system energy during an impact. To avoid such anomalies, we show that Poisson’s hypothesis should be used, rather than Newton’s law of restitution. In addition, correct identification of the contact mode of impact is essential.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
