Abstract
Mechanical systems in which moving components are mutually constrained through contacts often lead to complex contact kinematics involving tangential and normal relative motions. A friction contact model is proposed to characterize this type of contact kinematics that imposes both friction non-linearity and intermittent separation non-linearity on the system. The stick–slip friction phenomenon is analyzed by establishing analytical criteria that predict the transition between stick, slip, and separation of the interface. The established analytical transition criteria are particularly important to the proposed friction contact model for the transition conditions of the contact kinematics are complicated by the effect of normal load variation and possible interface separation. With these transition criteria, the induced friction force on the contact plane and the variable normal load perpendicular to the contact plane, can be predicted for any given cyclic relative motions at the contact interface and hysteresis loops can be produced so as to characterize the equivalent damping and stiffness of the friction contact. These-non-linear damping and stiffness methods along with the harmonic balance method are then used to predict the resonant response of a frictionally constrained two-degree-of-freedom oscillator. The predicted results are compared with those of the time integration method and the damping effect, the resonant frequency shift, and the jump phenomenon are examined.
