Rigid-Body Impact with Friction-Various Approaches Compared

Abstract

It is well known that a purely algebraic treatment of the rigid impact problem can lead to incorrect results in some cases. Over the last ten years, a variety of prescriptions for dealing with this difficulty have been proposed. Some of these approaches seek to preserve the purely algebraic nature of the standard treatment, while modifying it so as to take care of the troublesome cases. Others treat the impact as an evolutionary process, parametrized by cumulative normal impulse. Here, I summarize these various methods, and compare their predictions for two illustrative examples.
