Computer Simulation of Contact Forces Generated by Impact

TL;DR: In this paper, the stiffness properties of the impactor are used to simulate the contact forces generated at the point of contact which are responsible for localized damage to the target, and a computational algorithm which forms part of a new modeling technique for simulating contact forces is introduced.

Balancing and Hopping Motion Control Algorithms for an Under-actuated Robot

Morteza Azad
TL;DR: By confining the robot’s motion to a vertical plane, the robot is potentially able to perform hopping motion in 3D using the same algorithm that is proposed for planar hopping motion.

A closed-form formulation for the conformal articulation of metal-on-polyethylene hip prostheses: contact mechanics and sliding distance

TL;DR: A nonlinear dynamic model based on the multibody dynamic methodology to predict contact pressure and sliding distance of metal-on-polyethylene hip prosthesis, simultaneously, under normal walking condition is developed.

A treatise on the analytical dynamics of particles and rigid bodies

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive account of analytical dynamics is given, starting from first principles with kinematics before moving to equations of motion and specific and explicit methods for solving them, with chapters devoted to particle dyanmics, rigid bodies, vibration and dissipative systems.

Coefficient of Restitution Interpreted as Damping in Vibroimpact

TL;DR: In this paper, the Kelvin-Voigt model is shown to be logically untenable, for it indicates that the bodies must exert tension on one another just before separating, and it denotes that the damping energy loss is proportional to the square of the impacting velocity, instead of to its cube.

Impact on Composite Structures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present contact laws, contact dynamics, low velocity impact damage, residual properties, and ballistic impact on sandwich structures, as well as the impact on the sandwich structure.
