Jan,


time of the contact = contactTime = duration of contact.

let's say O.time= t1 when the contact is created. Then what I mean is to
implement the following equation :

phys->kn= kn1*deltaT

There is condition, if the bodies are approaching each other:

deltaT=t1-O.time

I know deltaT becomes negative, the main equation will be more complex,
this is only an example.


and if the bodies are getting away each other:

deltaT=O.time-t1

Behzad
