Rolling Friction Contact Models

Rolling Friction is the resistive force that slows down the motion of a rolling object.

Since the Rotational resistance and energy loss during rotation is substantial, most simulations should include a Rolling Friction component to account for the materials resistance to rolling. You can add only one Rolling Friction model per simulation. Rolling Friction models are only applicable to Multi-Sphere models. For Polyhedral models, you must add Spinning Friction models.
