# Comparative analysis of friction models in dynamics of a ball on a plane

2010, Vol. 6, No. 4, pp.  907-912

Author(s): Ivanov A. P.

Comparative analysis of the dynamics of a homogeneous ball on a plane with dry friction is conducted for two conjectures: 1) single contact point (non-holonomic statement); 2) the normal load is distributed in the circle spot of contact with radius $ε$. It is assumed that for given active forces and coefficient of friction the non-slip motion is possible. The expression for load distribution function $φ$ at the contact spot (second statement) is arbitrary, with general mild restrictions, which ensure correctness of the passage to the limit. It is shown that for $ε → 0$ the trajectory of the ball with contact spot approaches the trajectory of the ball with single contact point.

Previously similar result was obtained by Fufaev [1] in the case $φ = \rm{const}$. The possibility of approximation of reactions of non-holonomic constraints by means of forces of viscous friction was proved [2,3], as well as by means of forces of dry friction with infinitely large coefficient of friction [4].
