Collisions of Constrained Rigid Body Systems with Friction

A new approach is developed for the general collision problem of two rigid body systems with constraints (e.g., articulated systems, such as massy linkages) in which the relative tangential velocity at the point of contact and the associated friction force can change direction during the collision....
