Collision Modeling in Mechanical Systems on the Example of Impact Vibration Eliminators

The work presents modeling of collisions of mechanical bodies using two basic models of the collision: the Newton model, in which dynamics of the collision is described by the coefficient of restitution, and the model considering the elastic dissipative properties of colliding bodies, i.e. the non-linear Kelvin-Voigt model. Quantitative similarity of both models was described using the energetic method.
