Abstract

This paper deals with the behavior of a collection of rigid disks enclosed in a circular reservoir, colliding with a perfect elastic shock law (frictionless). Considerations concerning similarity properties of the solutions of the dynamical equations of colliding bodies together with numerical results using the NonSmooth Contact Dynamics method, allow for a discussion about the notion of perfect gas.
