[SOLVED] materials with directionally asymetric friction

[Arthur]

Is there a way to create an object in sofa with directionally asymmetric friction where that is built into the friction model?

For clarity, I want to model a system where the anisotropic friction comes from something at a much smaller length scale than the rest of what I am modelling.

Hi @amackeith

The friction built by default in SOFA is indeed isotropic.

I could ask to the teams working on such collision/friction topics, how could an anisotropic friction be implemented.
Sounds like a very interesting development.

Best wishes,

Hugo
