Abstract
Simulations are often used to evaluate space manipulator tasks that involve contact with the environment, due to the difficulty of performing realistic earth-based experiments. An important aspect of these simulations is the contact model used to determine the interbody forces between two objects in contact. In this paper, we present two compliant contact models for polyhedral contacting objects. These models explicitly consider the distinction between true contact geometry and interference geometry. To account for the energy dissipated during impact, a damping force is included in the two models. Model validation is then performed in three ways: against analytical models, against experimental data, and against finite element method (FEM) models. The results of the validation exercise demonstrate the fidelity of the proposed models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
