Abstract

In this paper, we conduct numerical analysis to study the effects of friction on the dynamic response of a single degree of freedom mechanical system. Two different friction models, the velocity dependent friction model and the LuGre friction model, have been used to model the friction interface. Bifurcation analysis has been conducted using equilibrium and limit cycle continuation methods. With system viscous damping as the bifurcation parameter, a reverse subcritical Hopf bifurcation is observed in the case of velocity dependent model. In the case of the LuGre model for the same bifurcation parameter, a reverse supercritical Hopf bifurcation is observed at lower velocities but at higher velocities it changes to a reverse subcritical Hopf bifurcation. A fold bifurcation of the limit cycles is also seen at higher velocities for the LuGre model.
