Restitution Coefficient in a Collision between Two Spheres

Open access
Kuwabara, Goro, Kono, Kimitoshi·1987·Japanese Journal of Applied Physics

Abstract

On the basis of elastic theory the restitution coefficient e was derived as a function of the elastic constants, radii, masses and colliding velocities of two spheres by taking the visco-elastic property into consideration. For a coefficient close to one, the value of (1-e) was found to be proportional to (velocity)1/5. This result was compared with a treatment based on the plastic property of solids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
