Sphere To Arc Revolution

 

A Sphere To Arc-Revolution Contact generates a force between a sphere and an arc-revolution as a cut sphere.

 

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

     The sphere must be defined as action geometry and the arc-revolution 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.
