Errata: Static Stability of Planar Contacting Systems: Analytical Treatment in Euclidean Space. ASME J. Mech. Rob., 16(8): p. 081009; DOI:10.1115/1.4064065

Abstract

This document contains errata for the research paper titled Static Stability of Planar Contacting Systems: Analytical Treatment in Euclidean Space by the same authors. The reasonings are provided along with the corrections. It is evident from the points mentioned below that none of the corrections affect the main contribution of the paper, which is an exact analytical formulation in Euclidean space for studying the static stability of planar rigid systems held by one or more frictional and frictionless contacts under gravity. The authors request the journal editor to allow incorporation of the following corrections for the sake of the reader's understanding and clarity.
