# Clamp force and friction holding # Scope: Lever-actuated friction clamp at one contact. # Status: illustrative worked example; engineering review pending. # Inputs are example values. Checks are editable example requirements, not standards. effort = 30 N handle = 100 mm jawArm = 20 mm friction = 0.3 normal := effort*handle/jawArm [N] holding := friction*normal [N] check holding target: holding >= 40 N scenario alternative: effort = 24 N
