The elasti
stru
ture impa
t problems are studied in the paper. Not only the lo
al impa
t
regions are regarded as deformable, but also the whole stru
ture is
onsidered as a
exible
one. At the lo
al impa
t regions, the non-linear
onstitutive equation
alled Hertz law is used,
while the de
e
tion of the
exible stru
ture is assumed to obey the linear Hooke's law. Both
analyti
al and numeri
al studies have been done. For
omparation, a simplied linear impa
t
model is also introdu
ted and studied in the paper. All the results show that the impa
t
pro
ess has a foundamental pattern due to the lo
al deformation at the impa
t regions and
with some additional ee
ts due to the in
uen
e of the stru
ture
exibility.
Introdu tion
Impa
t pro
ess is a very
omplex me
hani
al phenomenon indeed. The main property is that
the time pro
ess is very short (10 3 se
. order) and the magnitude level of the impa
t for
e
is very high. The simplest impa
t model is the rigid body impa
t model [3, in whi
h, the time
interval of impa
t pro
ess is assumed to be zero and the magnitude of the impa
t for
e is
innite, while the impulse remains limited. In this model, we only
on
ern with some major
integral quantities before and after the impa
tion and pay no attention on the impa
t pro
ess.
Of
ourse, in this model the lo
al deformations at the two impa
t regions due to large impa
t
for
e are also ignored.
The better model is to
ount in the elasti
or plasti
deformation at the lo
al impa
t regions, while the other regions are still regarded as the rigid parts. This model
an be
alled
lo
al deformation model. In this model, it is revealed that any impa
t pro
ess has a short time
interval. The impa
t for
e varies from zero to a large but nite value and then fall down to zero
again during the whole short impa
t interval. The
onstitutive equation of impa
t for
e and
relative deformation between two impa
t bodies,
alled Hertz law, is not a linear relationship.
So the impa
t phenomenon is essentially a non-linear me
hani
al problem.
If the impa
ted stru
ture is so
exible that its lowest natural frequen
y has the same order
of magnitude as, or even mu
h lower than that of the impa
t frequen
y (the re
ipro
al of the
impa
t period), the whole stru
ture must be regarded as a deformable one during the impa
t
pro
ess. This is
alled global deformation model. Although the stru
ture de
e
tion is still assumed to obey the Hooke's law, the lo
al deformation at the impa
t regions remains non-linear.
In this paper we study the third model in detail. The general non-linear equation of motion
is established. It is an integral equation of Voltera type. The general analyti
al solution is
dedu
ed by a perturbation method. The numeri
al
omputation is done by dieren
e method.
For
omparision, a simplied linear impa
t
onstitutive equation is used to linearize the problem. In this
ase, the problem is redu
ed to a initial problem of vibration whi
h
an be solved
analyti
ally.
All the results obtained in the paper show that the major impa
t pattern of the global
deformation model is not very far from the pattern of the lo
al deformation model whi
h
an
be
alled as fundamental pattern. And the additional ee
t of stru
ture
exibility is mainly
due to these normal vibration models of the stru
ture whose natural frequen
ies are not very
far from the impa
t frequen
y of the lo
al deformation model.
The for
ed vibration solution for multiple degree of freedom linear system is reviewed here

y. The
ontext des
ribed here is only those ne
essary fundamental material whi
h is
useful for developing the following nonlinear impa
t theory of elasti

For the
ase of elasti
impa
t between two bodies, the
onstitutive equation, namely, the Hertz
law [1 is given by
3
f (t) = 2 (t)
(18)
where (t) is the relative displa
ement between the two impa
t points, f (t) is the
onta
t for
e
during the impa
t time interval. Equation (18) expresses a nonlinear relation between the
impa
t for
e and the relative displa
ement. The
oe
ient is determined by the following
formula [2:

(19)

where ki (i = 1; 2) are the average

es at the two impa
t
points respe
tively. Ei and i (i = 1; 2) are the Young's moduli and Poission's ratios of the two
impa

Equation (42) is the nonlinear impa

ed here, from whi
h (t)
an be solved.
And the impa
t period tm
an be obtained by following
ondition:
(tm ) = 0
(43)
It is di
ult to nd out analyti
al solution of (42). Usually it should be solved numeri
ally
step by step with time t by a dieren
e method. For this reason, it is mu
h
onvenient to
alter (42) into a non-dimensional form. Taking the
hara
teristi
quantities of (32)-(37) for

ball-rigid plate impa
t and the ball mass m0 as the s
ale quantities, all the non-dimensional
quantities
an be dened as follows:

Linear Theory
By virtue of the approximate simple linear theory, we
an inspe
t some important impa
t
properties analyti
ally. It is also helpful to numeri
ally solve the non-linear equation (44) as
a
omparison.
6.1
In the linear impa
t theory, the Hertz law (18) should be repla
ed by the following linear
approximation
f (t) = k0 (t)
10
(47)
where k0 is an equivalent stiness

First, if m0 =mj = 0; (j = 1; ; n), the i-th eigensolution

It
an be veried that Cj (t) is a bounded fun
tion. So eq. (93) shows that all those terms
in the summation whose ! j is mu
h larger than e0 1:064
ould be negle
ted be
ause their
attribution to the summation are too small to
ount in. Only those terms whose ! j is not
very far from e0 have essential ee
t on the value of j (t). This means that all the ee
t of the
higher modes on the impa
t
an be omitted. Meanwhile, if !0 is large enough, the lower j -th
modes ! j = !j =!0 are also very small. In these
ases, the ee
t of lower modes
an also be
negle
ted. These
on
lusions dedu
ed from nonlinear theory are
onsistent with that of linear
theory at the end of se
tion 6.
