Where can I find fixture presets of different materials?

Question

Where can I find fixture presets, that can be used in rigid body physics engines, like Box2D to simulate the behaviour of different materials?

I'm looking for values of density, friction and restitution for common materials like:

• Smooth/rough metal
• Wood
• Rubber
• Plastic

Is there a method beside trial and error of setting these values to achieve realistic results?

Answer 1

• For 'density rubber', see Densities of Miscellaneous Solids.

• For 'friction table', see Coefficient of Friction.

• For 'rubber restitution', see Coefficients of Restitution.
