Experimental studying multi-impact phenomena exhibited during the collision of a sphere onto a steel beam

The impact of sphere against the beam is one of the basic impact problems in flexible mechanical dynamics. A flexible steel beam supported at the two ends struck by a steel sphere was tested in this article. Multiple sub-impacts were observed during the falling impact process of the steel sphere. Th...
