Abstract: When a robot system collides with environment, not only the contact point but also the joints of the robot system experience impulsive forces or moments. In the real environment, the structure collides with environment at multiple points. However, most previous modeling methods have assumed one point contact to environment. In this work, we propose external and internal impulse models in case of multiple contact. The case of one point contact is compared to the case of multiple points contact through simulation.
