This document discusses friction, providing definitions and examples. It defines friction as the force resisting the relative motion of surfaces in contact. Examples of friction in daily life include rubbing hands together, pushing objects, and walking. There are desired and undesired types of friction. Desired friction helps with tasks while undesired creates resistance. The main types of friction are dry friction between solid surfaces and fluid friction between layers in a fluid. Dry friction includes static and kinetic friction, which are distinguished by whether the applied force is below or above the friction force. The coefficient of friction is also explained. Robotics applications of friction are mentioned, such as increasing or decreasing friction depending on the needs.

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING ROORKEE What is friction? Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. A resistance encountered when one body moves relative to another. A force on objects or substances in contact with each other. Note:- Forces of action reaction between contacting surface act normal to the surface. Examples of friction in our daily life Rubbing both hands together to generate heat. Iron being pushed across material Car roaming on the streets. Turning of bikes on curves. Skies sliding on snow. Pulling a trolley. Books sliding. Walking & many more Desired & Undesired friction forces Desired friction forces are forces that help us in work. Example: Friction help us in walking.
Undesired friction forces are forces that opposes our work,
create resistance in our work. Its a loss of energy. Example : Friction between Gears. Fluid flow through pipes. Types of friction. Dry Friction Fluid Friction Occurs between no Occurs when adjacent lubricated surfaces of two layer in a fluid move at solids. different velocities. Types of Dry Friction Static Friction Kinetic Friction When applied force is less When applied force is than or equal to the greater than friction force friction force & object & object starts moving is doesn't move is called static called kinetic friction. friction. F(r)F(a) F(r) <F(a) F(r)= friction force F(a)= force applied Static Friction Formula F(r) = s (N) Where F(r) = Frictional Force s = Coefficient of static friction. N = Normal force on the object. Kinetic Friction Formula F(r) = k (N) Where, F(r) = Frictional force value. k = coefficient of kinetic friction N = Normal force on object. Coefficient of friction () Object is in static motion. F = F(r) F(r)= mg cos F = mg sin mgsin = mgcos = mgsin / mgcos = tan tan 1 1 Friction in Robotics. Robots on inclination slides back on track. For this problem friction should be increased in wheels , grips should be applied. Friction between gear is loss of energy implies to decrease in efficiency of robots. Friction must be reduced for reducing friction grease to be applied on gears. Friction between gears scrape the gear teeth, and it destroys gear motors. For heavy work high torque motor to be used.
