Re: [Question #690066]: Using O.forces along normal and tangential directions at contact

Rioual gave more information on the question:
Hello Jan,

To be more precise:

F_n = f(alfa) * normal_strain_rate + g(alfa)

F_t = h(alfa) * tangential_strain_rate

alfa is a dynamic variable which varies at each time step according to an evolution differential equation
 that involves the geometry of contact and normal strain rate...etc 
(d(alfa)/dt = function(alfa, normal_strain_rate, geometrical parameters , physical parameters)....

....So that I want to use O.forces to implement that in an incremental
way !!

When i say "relative velocities of the particles at contact", I just
said "at contact" because of potential spin on the particles...


All the best!

Vincent
