EMEC 415 - Impact Dynamics

3 credits (Hrs: 3 Lec.)

A study of the dynamic response of structures involved in a collision and the application of the fundamental theory of rigid bodies for multi-degree of impact events, discrete and continuum modeling of the contact region, stress wave propagation in a deformable body, and vibration in flexible structures.
