RAMP FRICTION
Even the simplest of ramps require a friction analysis to ensure proper applicationSolvit Half-Ramp II

Ramp Friction There are quite a number of ways to measure the coefficient of
static friction. These include: Leonardo da Vinci's weight ratio method Spring balance method Clamping Pendulum Motorized tribometer Tilted plane

Ramp Friction One of the simpliest and most
common methods is the tilted plane method. The device used to perform this test is a called a friction table
Such a device allows a mass or a certain material to rest on a table. The table surface may be covered or coated with a second material
The table is simply tilted until the mass begins to move
The angle at which motion begins is recorded and a specified analysis procedure is used to calculate the coefficient of friction

Ramp Friction The use of a friction table requires the analysis of what is called
ramp friction. Such an analysis requires the development of the Free Body Diagram
Assume mass 'm' with weight 'W' rests on an inclined plane. Impending motion occurs when the plane is tilted to angle θ A FBD of the mass is shown on the following page. Of course, the
weight vector is vertical. But the normal force will be perpendicular to the inclined plane and equal to the component of weight perpendicular to the inclined plane
Of course, the component of weight parallel to the inclined plane is what tends to drive the mass down the plane
The developed force of friction will be parallel to the inclined plane, be equal to the component of weight parallel to the inclined plane, and always oppose the direction of impending motion

Ramp Friction The FBD explained on the previous page is shown below. Note
the use of a rotated X-Y coordinate axis system. By similar triangles, the y-component of W is at an angle θ with the y-axis
The determination of the coefficient of friction is a simple sum of forces analysis
W y =W⋅cos and W x =W⋅sin
F x = F −W⋅sin . . . F =W⋅sin
F y= N −W⋅cos . . . N =W⋅cos
Since: =FN

Ramp Friction From the discussion on plain friction, we know
Resultant 'R' of the normal and friction forces is at an angle φ with the normal force
The tangent of angle φ also defines the coefficient of friction
It then follows:When motion is impending for a mass of weight 'W' when resting on an inclined plane at angle θ, then the angle of incline is equal to the friction angle φ
But what happens when we apply some force 'P' to: Push the mass up the ramp? Pull the mass down the ramp? Hold the mass in place to prevent it
from sliding down the ramp?

Ramp Friction Assume force 'P', at some angle α with the horizontal, pushing
a mass of weight 'W' up a ramp inclined to angle θ. Motion is impending. The value of µs is given
As with all statics problems, first develop a proper free body diagram. This includes an x-y axis rotate to angle θ
Break all forces into their x- and y-components and apply equilibrium.
Solve for any three of five possible variables: P, W, F, N, or µ
P x = P⋅cos and P y = P⋅sin

A mass of 1000 lbmhas a weight of 1000 lb fBreaking all forces into their x and y components, we know:

Notice that since weight is a vertical forceand the normal force is not, N≠W
N = unknown y-componentF = unknown x-component

Example 7a - Ramp Friction Writing the equations of equilibrium, we have:
F x= 0.766⋅P−500−F F y =−0.643⋅P−866N
This results in two equations with three unknowns!We need another relationship. We do know:
=FN
. . . F = 0.268⋅N
Substituting F into F x , we have: F x= 0.766⋅P−500−0.268⋅N
Now divide through by and add to F y.
F x= 0 = 2.86⋅P−1866−N F y = 0 =−0.643⋅P−866N
Adding to eliminate N and solve for P:
0 = 2.22⋅P − 2732 . . . P = 1230 lb f

Example 8a - Ramp Friction Now assume we wish to apply a force 'P' to pull the same mass
down the same ramp with impending motion In such a scenario, we first need to check to ensure the block is
resting in place, not already sliding down the ramp. To do so, the angle θ cannot exceed the tan-1(µ)
= 30o
= tan−1 = 15o
Since ≪ , this mass will move withoutapplication of force 'P'. In fact, a force 'P'must be applied to prevent slidingLet's determine that force

Example 10 - Ramp Friction A ramp is being designed to load equipment into a pickup truck.
The tailgate of the pickup is 1.2 meters above the ground. The ramp has a horizontal dimension of 3.6 meters. The equipment being loaded has a mass of 1000 kg. What is the minimum required coefficient of friction?
To build a FBD for this problem, weneed to know the angle of the rampand the weight of the mass.

Example 10 - Ramp Friction The minimum coefficient of friction is that value that causes
impending motion if the mass is at rest
Since =FN
, then we need to find F and N.
From equilibrium: N =W⋅cos = 9807⋅cos 18.43o= 9304N
F =W⋅sin = 9807⋅sin 18.43o= 3100 N
Then =FN
=31009304
= 0.333
Notice this is also the tangent of angle θ of the ramp. In actuality, we would increase µ based upon some factor of safety
18
Example 11 - Ramp Friction In the previous problem, for the calculated coefficient of friction,
what is the maximum weight that can be driven up the ramp without slipping?
Since =FN
From equilibrium: N =W⋅cos F =W⋅sin
Then:
=FN
=W⋅sin W⋅cos
= tan
In other words, weight is not a factor when determining when sliding occurs. This is determined strictly by ramp angle and coefficients of friction
