Coefficient of restitution for viscoelastic disks [PDF]
The dissipative collision of two identical viscoelastic disks is studied. By using a known law for the elastic part of the interaction force and the viscoelastic damping model an analytical solution for the coefficient of restitution shall be given.

Coefficient of Restitution as a Fluctuating Quantity [PDF]
The coefficient of restitution of a spherical particle in contact with a flat plate is investigated as a function of the impact velocity. As an experimental observation we notice non-trivial (non-Gaussian) fluctuations of the measured values. For a fixed

Coefficient of restitution for elastic disks [PDF]
We calculate the coefficient of restitution, $\epsilon$, starting from a microscopic model of elastic disks. The theory is shown to agree with the approach of Hertz in the quasistatic limit, but predicts inelastic collisions for finite relative ...

Heated granular fluids: the random restitution coefficient approach [PDF]
We introduce the model of inelastic hard spheres with random restitution coefficient $\alpha$, in order to account for the fact that, in a vertically shaken granular system interacting elastically with the vibrating boundary, the energy injected ...

Basketball Surfaces and Coefficient of Restitution
A basketball was released from varying drop heights to simulate the impact speeds of a typical soft, medium, and hard dribble. This was repeated across four different surfaces that students typically play on–exposed aggregate concrete, maple wood ...

Coefficient of Restitution of Badminton Smashes
Badminton smashes were recorded and analyzed at high speed, measuring the velocities of the shuttlecock and racquet head to determine the relationship between initial impact velocity and the coefficient of restitution. It was found that the coefficient

Coefficient of Restitution of Wet Tennis Balls [PDF]
The coefficient of restitution of a damp tennis ball is of interest to tennis players. Using a spray bottle, water was added to a tennis ball and the mass of water on the wet ball was determined. The ball was then dropped from a fixed height of 0.86 m.

Aiming at the problem that the current coefficient of restitution model cannot effectively predict energy dissipation in the multi-body system collision process, a coefficient of restitution model considering the yield strength is proposed in this ...

Influencing Factors Analysis and Simulation Calibration of Restitution Coefficient of Rice Grain
It is difficult to determine the coefficient of restitution accurately due to the small size, light weight, and complex influencing factors of rice grain.
