Coefficient of restitution of colliding viscoelastic spheres
We perform a dimension analysis for colliding viscoelastic spheres to show that the coefficient of normal restitution epsilon depends on the impact velocity g as epsilon=1-gamma(1)g(1/5)+gamma(2)g(2/5)-/+..., in accordance with recent findings. We develop a simple theory to find explicit expressions...

| Zusammenfassung: | We perform a dimension analysis for colliding viscoelastic spheres to show that the coefficient of normal restitution epsilon depends on the impact velocity g as epsilon=1-gamma(1)g(1/5)+gamma(2)g(2/5)-/+..., in accordance with recent findings. We develop a simple theory to find explicit expressions for coefficients gamma(1) and gamma(2). Using these and few next expansion coefficients for epsilon(g) we construct a Padé approximation for this function which may be used for a wide range of impact velocities where the concept of the viscoelastic collision is valid. The obtained expression reproduces quite accurately the existing experimental dependence epsilon(g) for ice particles |
