Please note that the Spatial Contact Force block has been added in R2019b. You should see if this block meets your needs before using this library.
This library contains contact force models and force laws for multibody modeling in Simscape Multibody. They cover 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional problems with or without friction. More than 45 example models are provided, including basic contact force examples (bouncing ball) and more complex applications such as a cam-follower mechanism, differential drive robot, and a robot arm with a gripper. Both linear and nonlinear force laws are included, and you can easily add your own custom force law to your multibody dynamics model.
