Comparing Two Real Life Friction Tests to Finite Element Models • Inclined Plane Test and Dragging Friction Test • Determine Theoretical Values for Three Friction Cases • Steel on Steel (coefficient = .80) • Delrin on Steel (coefficient = .27) • Delrin on Delrin (coefficient = .38) • Compare Finite Element Model Results to Theoretical Results for 3 Mesh Densities
Inclined Plane Test • Nonlinear 2D Quasi-Static Explicit Analysis • 2D Block on Flat Plate • Rotate Plate with Constant Angular Velocity, Measure When Block Starts Moving
