Development of a Contact Force Model Suited for Spherical Contact Event

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. The strain energy is derived according to the co...
