Abstract

The restitution coefficient is used to characterize the energy loss in particle impact, which is an important parameter for discrete element simulation and mechanical system motion analysis. However, the restitution coefficient of many materials needs to be determined, and the key material properties affecting the restitution coefficient are still unclear. In this paper, the acoustic frequency sampling method was used to study the restitution coefficients of 10 representative particles. The effects of material density and specific strength on the restitution coefficient and the relationship between the restitution coefficient and the damping coefficient were investigated. The results show that the particle restitution coefficient is inversely proportional to the density except for aluminium. The relationship between particle restitution coefficient and specific strength is not significant.
