Abstract:

A new analysis method has been developed to solve the contact problems of a thin beam impacting against a stop. The motivation for this research came from impact failure problems frequently found in thin plate type valves used in small compressors. The developed procedure is believed to provide, for the first time, a complete analysis method for this kind of problem. The procedure has been developed in a general form so that it can be utilized for impact problems with any general stop geometry.
