4.16.4. Velocity and Pressure Dependent FrictionΒΆ

frictionModel('VelPressureDep', frnTag, muSlow, muFast0, A, deltaMu, alpha, transRate)

This command is used to construct a VelPressureDep friction model object.

frnTag (int) unique friction model tag
muSlow (float) coefficient of friction at low velocity
muFast0 (float) initial coefficient of friction at high velocity
A (float) nominal contact area
deltaMu (float) pressure parameter calibrated from experimental data
alpha (float) pressure parameter calibrated from experimental data
transRate (float) transition rate from low to high velocity
