A comparative study between Amontons-Coulomb and Dieterich-Ruina friction laws for the cyclic response of a single degree of freedom system

This study aims at assessing the predictive performance of the Amontons–Coulomb law to reliably predict the cyclic response, inclusive of stick–slip, of a single degree of freedom system in contact with the ground through two versions (steady-state and rate-and-state) of a regularized Dieterich–Ruina law. The assessment is carried out by...
