Sphere To Arc Extrusion

 

A Sphere To Arc Extrusion Contact generates a force between a sphere and an arc-extrusion.

 

     The sphere and arc-extrusion must belong to two different bodies.

     The sphere must be defined as action geometry and the arc-extrusion must be defined as a base geometry.

     The contact force can be generated with not only linear or exponential but also nonlinear spline characteristics to the contact penetration and its velocity.
