Abstract

Using a substructure synthesis method this paper studies the longitudinal compressive impact of a flexible bar with a rigid body. The crucial variable affecting the validity of the method is derived theoretically. By computational simulation tests, excellent agreement has been found between the solution of this model and the exact solution when the variable is chosen suitably. Considering both the computational efficiency and the accuracy of solutions obtained on the model in different engineering problems, several optimum values of the variable are suggested.
