Thank you for opening the third edition of this monograph. The first edition [202] was
published in 1996 in the Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences series (vol. 220) …

With the widespread application of the discrete element method, research on accurate
simulation of particle systems has attracted significant attention. However, there is no …

Impact is a complicated phenomenon that occurs when two or more bodies collide at a short
time period. Impact model is used to determine the responses of the contact bodies due to …

This paper presents an experimental investigation on low velocity impact (LVI) behaviour of
flexible biocomposite laminates with different stacking sequence namely jute/rubber/jute …

The coefficient of restitution (COR) is one of the fundamental particle properties needed in
the setup of discrete element modelling (DEM) simulations. The more accurate the input …

The coefficient of restitution e is determined as the ratio of the final to the initial relative
velocity between two moving objects after their collision. It is also one of the basic features …

The present research investigates optimizing the impact resistance of functionally graded
sandwich structures using experimental and numerical approaches. The low‐velocity impact …

The coefficient of restitution (COR) is one of the microscopic physical properties of maize
that must be specified to use EDEM software to perform numerical simulations to support the …

The present work concentrates on assessing the low-velocity impact (LVI) response of sisal-
natural rubber (NR)-based flexible green composite in two different stacking sequences …

Rockfall collision is the most complex and unpredictable movement pattern in rockfall
movement. By examining the rockfall collision process, it will be possible to accurately …
