Development of a Contact Force Model Suited for Spherical Contact Event

Actuators, 2023
The stiffness coefficient suited for a spherical contact body is developed by means of a contact semi-angle based on Steuermann’s theory. The new static contact force model is close to the results of FEM when the index of the polynomial is equal to 2 ...

Experimental evaluation of tangential contact force characteristics between wheel and rail focusing on water flow rate

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2022
This paper describes the relationship between a tangential contact force and a slip ratio under various wet condition. In previous studies, the effect of difference in watering amount on the tangential contact force characteristics under wheel/rail ...

Stator-Rotor Contact Force Estimation of Rotating Machine

Automation, 2021
In turbomachines, dry friction resulting from stator–rotor contacts is a severe problem that may degrade lifetime of the machine or even lead to complete failure. Knowledge about the system states and contact forces is beneficial for system monitoring or

Finite element based surface roughness study for ohmic contact of microswitches [PDF]

, 2012
Finite element method (FEM) is used to model ohmic contact in microswitches. A determinist approach is adopted, including atomic force microscope (AFM) scanning real contact surfaces and generating rough surfaces with three-dimensional mesh.

Statistics of the contact network in frictional and frictionless granular packings [PDF]

, 2002
Simulated granular packings with different particle friction coefficient mu are examined. The distribution of the particle-particle and particle-wall normal and tangential contact forces P(f) are computed and compared with existing experimental data ...
