Introduction

These models represents friction with the fixed world. The amount of friction depends on the normal force that is applied and the friction function that is used. The normal force is given by the input signal Fn.

Friction

The models have only one initial port p defined. Because any number of connections can be made, successive ports are named p1, p2, p3 etc. 20-sim will automatically create equations such that the resulting force p.F is equal to the sum of the forces of all connected ports p1 .. pn. The velocities of all connected ports are equal to p.v.

 

p.F = sum(p1.F, p2.F, ....)

p.v = p1.v = p2.v = ....

 

Due to the use of normal force, the friction models all have a fixed force out causality. The constitutive equations are therefore described as:

 

p.F = Fn * f(p.v);

 

with f the friction function.

Description - C

This model represents friction with the fixed world described as coulomb friction:

 

p.F = Fn*mu_c*tanh(slope*p.v);

 

Fn: normal force (given by the input signal Fn)

mu_c: the coulomb friction coefficient

slope: the steepness of the coulomb friction curve.
