In this chapter, two simple cases of stereomechanical collision of spheres are analyzed. The fundamentals of contact mechanics of solids are introduced to illustrate the interrelationship between the collisional forces and deformations of solids. Specifically, the general theories of stresses and strains inside a solid medium under the application of an external force are described. The intrinsic relations between the contact force and the corresponding elastic deformations of contacting bodies are discussed. In this connection, it is assumed that the deformations are processed at an infinitely small impact velocity and for an infinitely long period of contact. The normal impact of elastic bodies is modeled by the Hertzian theory [Hertz, 1881], and the oblique impact is delineated by Mindlin s theory [Mindlin, 1949]. In order to link the contact theories to collisional mechanics, it is assumed that the process of a dynamic impact of two solids can be regarded as quasi-static. This quasi-static approach is valid when the impact velocity is small compared to the speed of the elastic... 

The mechanical properties of rapidly polymerizing acrylic dispersions, in simulated bioconditions, were directly related to microstructural characteristics. The volume fraction of matrix, the crosslinker volume in the matrix, the particle size distribution of the dispersed phase, and polymeric additives in the matrix or dispersed phase were important microstructural factors. The mechanical properties were most sensitive to volume fraction of crosslinker. Ten percent (vol) of ethylene dimethacrylate produced a significant improvement in flexural strength and impact resistance. Qualitative dynamic impact studies provided some insight into the fracture mechanics of the system. A time scale for the elastic, plastic, and failure phenomena in Izod impact specimens was qualitatively established. The time scale and rate sensitivity of the phenomena were correlated with the fracture surface topography and fracture geometry in impact and flexural samples. 

Joining the wheel-speed sensor to the cable tree is done with a connector. The demands on the connector are low contact-resistance, safe connection by connector pins under the influence of dynamic impact, and pin material resistant to corrosion. Depending on the installation area, the further requirement of tightness may be necessary. Fig. 7.9.14 shows three examples of connectors. 

According to the dissipated energy formula that was used in the SHPB dynamic impact rock specimen, incident energy, reflex energy and transmission energy could be calculated under different impact rate. Finally the change tendency of dissipation energy with the impact velocity was shown in Fig. 7.

Another dynamic method of evaluating the static load capacity of deep foundations is to install instruments on the foundation and use them to monitor load and settlement data obtained while the foundation is subjected to a dynamic impact load. This measured response to dynamic loads can then be used to develop design static load capacities. 

The main dilferences between conventional quasi-static mechanical testing and a dynamic impact event on large samples have been well demonstrated in the open literature. Generally, the strain rate for quasi-static mechanical testing is on the order of lO -lO s while dynamic testing is in the range of 10 -10" s Therefore, the stressed volume in an impact event is much larger than that in the...

Dynamic-impact force pulses produced with restrained pulse pressures and a range of frequencies can be used to investigate possible power outputs (Zeng et al., 2013). Soin et al. (2014) designed an experiment where they used an Instron system compression test by attaching a compression plate to the load cell. The impact pressure applied was in the range of 0.02-0.10 MPa, which generated an output power density of 1.1-5.1 pWcm 2.
