Abstract:
The impactor and target are considered an integrated system of vibration, so the elastic impact problem can be dealt with as a problem of conventiollal dynamic response analysis of the system under the initial condition that a and only a part of the integrated system (impactor) is subjected to a given velocity distribution. The results of clajssical illustrative examples obtained by the suggested strategy agree with those obtained by the wave theory very well and uniform convergence can be achieved if more ...
