contact with friction

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hey,

I´m trying to model a ceramik block that slide on a second ceramik block.

The distance between the first and the second block is 0.001 m.

In the middle of the lower edge of the first block I set a fixed constraint.
The two blocks are set up as a contact pair, and a static coulomb friction is set.
The first block has a body load of (-rho*gravity).

my problems are:

- the upper block does not reach the lower.
- result = no friction

Has someone an example?

Thanks for tips


Daniel
