Abstract
AbstractAs a result of the relative displacements between contiguous particles, forces are generated at the interparticle contacts. The contact force-displacement behaviour depends on the material properties of the particles, the sizes of the two particles in contact and the surface conditions. In this chapter we consider contact force models that are based on theoretical contact mechanics. Equations are derived for both the normal and tangential contact forces between two spheres in contact for elastic and elastic-plastic interactions, with and without adhesion.KeywordsNormal ForceTangential ForceTangential StiffnessContact RadiusNormal Contact ForceThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
