Inequality of the Coefficients of Restitution for Vertical and Horizontal Quasielastic Impacts of a Ball Agaist a Massive Plate

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

It is experimentally found out that there is a difference between the coefficients of restitution for horizontal and vertical quasielastic impacts of a steel ball with an initial velocity of no greater than 3 m/sec against a massive steel plate. Possible causes of the difference are considered.
