Abstract :
This paper presents a viscous and coulomb friction measurement procedure for mechanical systems equipped with high-precision velocity sensors. The proposed method exploits the structure of the velocity response predicted by several standard friction models when a force or torque is applied in a ramp fashion. Experimental results show the high accuracy of the proposed measurement procedure
