Rolling motion in moving droplets

Pramana, 2015
Drops moving on a substrate under the action of gravity display both rolling and sliding motions. The two limits of a thin sheet-like drop in sliding motion on a surface, and a spherical drop in roll, have been extensively studied. We are interested in intermediate shapes.

Rolling motion and crumpled surfaces

American Journal of Physics, 1995
We discuss some aspects of a paper which appeared recently in this journal [F. F. Lima, V. M. Oliveira, and M. A. F. Gomes, Am. J. Phys. 61, 421–422, 1993] in which the fractional dimension of rolling crumpled surfaces is measured experimentally. We show that this experiment may not actually be measuring fractal dimension kinematically at all.

A motion planning for grasp and manipulation system based on rolling motion

2017 IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications (CCTA), 2017
This paper proposes a motion planning method to manipulate a grasped object by a two-fingered robot hand based on the nonholonomy of rolling contacts. A grasped rectangular object is regulated to a target configuration through regulating the contact coordinates between the fingers and object using the holonomy generated by closed paths on semi ...

On the Sensitivity of the Roll Motion of an FPSO

21st International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Volume 1, 2002
This paper describes a theoretical model that has been used to investigate the roll motion of an FPSO. The Statoil operated Norne FPSO at Haltenbanken off central Norway has been used as a reference for the investigation. The model is based on linear potential theory. The viscous roll damping has been incorporated by linearizing the effect.

Retrograde motion of a rolling disk

Physics-Uspekhi, 2017
Abstract This paper presents results of theoretical and experimental research explaining the retrograde final-stage rolling of a disk under certain relations between its mass and geometric parameters. Modifying the no-slip model of a rolling disk by including viscous rolling friction provides a qualitative explanation for the disk’s ...

Rolling motion experiments with a microcomputer

Physics Education, 1995
The use of a microcomputer allows data to be taken easily in many experiments. This is illustrated here for the case of three different bodies rolling down an inclined plane.
