Abstract Rod occasionally drops and impacts on a substrate, which can induce drastic vibration within the rod.
Acquaintance with the mechanical and motional responses helps to evaluate the structure. In this study, the
vertical impact of a slender flat-ended 316 stainless steel rod on a rigid flat was investigated. The rod was
basically elastic despite minute plastic dissipation, which accounted for around 0.11% of the total energy,
probably due to the convergence of the incident stress waves. Theoretical models describing the
longitudinal vibration of the rod was established respectively using the contact-impact force and the
displacement… More >
