Abstract
Many processes in machines and mechanisms are accompanied by impacts with friction. They arise by short-time contacts between two or more bodies, and they generate energy losses mainly due to friction in tangential contact directions. During the last three decades, a couple of impact models based on the theory of rigid body contacts were established connected with the names of Moreau, Fremond, and Glocker, which all work quite satisfactorily with respect to practical applications. In the following, we shall establish the basic equations, discuss several structural issues, and consider the energy behavior of impulsive motion. Measurements verify the theoretical ideas very nicely. An application will be given, too.
