The selection of the contact force model plays a crucial role in the modeling and analysis of dynamical systems. The seminal work by Hunt and Crossley, published in 1975, is one of the most prominent contact force models that finds application in different areas of science and engineering. The contact force approach proposed by Hunt and Crossley has motivated and inspired a large number of researchers that, eventually, led to the publication of numerous solutions to evaluate contact forces. This paper presents an extensive collection of contact force models available in the literature that have been developed on the basis of the Hunt and Crossley's cornerstone work. The behavior of each contact force model is assessed with a simple example of application and their performance is analyzed.

接触力模型的选择在动力系统的建模和分析中起着至关重要的作用。Hunt 和 Crossley 于 1975 年发表的开创性工作是最杰出的接触力模型之一，可应用于不同的科学和工程领域。Hunt 和 Crossley 提出的接触力方法激励和启发了大量研究人员，最终导致发布了许多评估接触力的解决方案。本文提供了大量文献中可用的接触力模型，这些模型是在 Hunt 和 Crossley 的基石工作的基础上开发的。每个接触力模型的行为都通过一个简单的应用示例进行评估，并分析了它们的性能。
