Smith, N. D., Swift, M. R., & Smith, M. I. (2021). Collision-enhanced friction of a bouncing ball on a rough vibrating surface. Scientific Reports, 11, Article 442. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-80067-w

We describe experiments and simulations to investigate the dynamics of a ball bouncing on a rough vibrating surface. Directly measuring the impulse due to each bounce we find that the frictional interaction with the surface is strongly enhanced near...
