This work reviews the main techniques to model dynamical systems with contact-impact
events. Regularized and non-smooth formulations are considered, wherein the fundamental …

Flexible multibody system dynamics (MSD) is one of the hot spots and difficulties in modern
mechanics. It provides a powerful theoretical tool and technical support for dynamic …

wheat.•Calibration of the DEM parameters of wheat for storage is performed.•Bulk properties …

In this article, the Coefficient of Restitution (COR) and Energy Loss Percentage (ELP) of one-
dimensional impacts are determined experimentally for different ball sizes using a drop test …

Since Euler's original gyro-dynamic analysis nearly two and a half centuries ago, the use of
multi-body dynamics (MBD) has spread widely in application scope from large displacement …

A new method is proposed that can deal with multi-impact problems and produce
energetically consistent and unique post-impact velocities. A distributing law related to the …

This paper appraises the current status of research devoted to the problem of modeling
impact in multibody systems. The paper presents a focused, yet coherent overview of the …

This review article presents methods for treatment of impact problems in multi-body
dynamics with a special focus on the coefficient of restitution. The impact modelling in multi …

This paper investigates the effects of strain rate sensitivity on the impact of two identical
spheres. The spheres made of SUJ2 steel were impacted by using pendulum setup. The …
