Abstract: Impact problems arise in many practical applications. The need for obtaining an accurate model for the inelastic impact is a challenging problem. In general, two approaches are common in solving ...

Abstract: This paper presents the solution of the impact problem for a sliding/bouncing baton on flat and inclined planes subject to surface friction. The baton is assumed to have unilaterally constrained ...

Abstract: In this paper, we numerically solved the elastic multiple impact problem in a linear chain of balls using the impulse momentum and Hertz contact theory based methods. The first method depends ...
