Friction Coeffcients greater than > 1.0?

Submitted by berlinphoenix on Tue, 08/17/2021 - 17:26

Hi all,

i have to questions regarding friction coeffcient. First, why is the upper limit for the friction coeffcient = 1?
There are plenty of materials that have a friction coeffcient greater 1 in literature.

Second question is a bit more special. How can i implement a model that allows for friction coeffcient's greater than 1? And also would it be possible to implement a friction model that allows to set the friction coeffcient in relation to the normal force that act's on individual particles?

Thanks a lot for hints!
