Member Function Documentation

◆ SetAdhesionMultDMT()

void chrono::ChContactMaterialSMC::SetAdhesionMultDMT ( float  val)
inline

Adhesion multiplier in the Derjaguin-Muller-Toporov model.

In this model,
   adhesion = adhesionMultDMT * sqrt(R_eff)
given the surface energy, w,
   adhesionMultDMT = 2 * CH_PI * w * sqrt(R_eff)
given the equilibrium penetration distance, y_eq,
   adhesionMultDMT = 4.0 / 3.0 * E_eff * powf(y_eq, 1.5)

◆ SetAdhesionSPerko()

void chrono::ChContactMaterialSMC::SetAdhesionSPerko ( float  val)
inline

Coefficient for Perko adhesion model.

In this model (see Perko et al., 2001),
   adhesion = adhesionSPerko * R
The coefficient adhesionSPerko is function of the Hamaker constant A and a measure of cleanliness S.
For lunar regolith,
   adhesionSPerko = 3.6e-2 * S^2
