Join Sebastian Castro and Ed Marquez Brunal as they discuss approaches for modeling and simulation of mechanical contact using Simulink® and Simscape™. Contact modeling can help you build detailed simulations for design and analysis of mechanical systems.
In the second part of this series, Sebastian and Ed present the general workflow for modeling mechanical contact in Simulink block diagrams. You will explore the following examples, which describe contact modeling approaches with different products and levels of detail:
Contact and friction forces in mathematical models created with Simulink
1D (translation or rotation) contact force models of physical models created with Simscape
3D (translation and rotation) contact models using Simscape Multibody™, along with some useful block libraries you can find online
You can find the example models used in this video on MATLAB Central File Exchange. In addition, you can access the following resources for more information:
