mrhappy is still having a problem:
Hi,

I read [1] very carefully. I dont understand one of the formula (maybe
there is a typo). Under the Contact Model (exmaple) section, the formula
with an if statement for calcuating FT. If the if statement is true,
then FT = FtT*norm(FN)*tan(angle)/FtT. Now FtT (in the denominator) is a
vector. How can you divide with a vector? Can someone clearfy this for
me?

Thanks!
