Study of contact-impact force models in multibody mechanical systems

This work deals with the contact-impact force models for spherical and cylindrical shaped surface collisions in multibody mechanical systems. The impact phenomenon is characterized by abrupt changes in the values of system variables, most commonly discontinuities in the system velocities. Other effe...
