Application of the nonsmooth dynamics approach to model and analysis of the contact-impact events in cam-follower systems (2012, methodology): “Newton’s model was used for impact while the Coulomb’s law was used for friction [14].”
Numerical and experimental investigation on multibody systems with revolute clearance joints (2011, methodology): “Wilson and Fawcett [37, 38] used values of the friction coefficient in the range of 0.”
On the continuous contact force models for soft materials in multibody dynamics (2011, background): “The contactimpact study in multibody dynamics has received a great deal of attention in the past few years and it still remains an active field of research and development [10–22].”
A comparative study of the viscoelastic constitutive models for frictionless contact interfaces in solids (2015, methodology): “In these methods, the relative indentation between the contacting bodies is not permitted as bodies are considered to be entirely rigid at the contact zone [41].”
A new model for dry and lubricated cylindrical joints with clearance in spatial flexible multibody systems (2011, background): “Readers interested in this particular issue are referred to some relevant research works that offer a detailed discussion on different approaches to model and analyze contact–impact events within the spirit of multibody systems methodologies [48–53].”
