Abstract
This paper is an experimental and numerical study of the low velocity impact on beams. It is shown that the numerical model adopted, for the impact force history, produces numerical results in good agreement with experimental data. The analysis establishes that the contact point position is insignificant on the main impact and rebounds are closer in time when we approach the clamped edge. The increasing of the incident energy (mass or celerity of the striker) has the effect of amplifying the impact force without changing its duration in the case of the velocity and with increasing the amplitude of the impact force in the case of the mass. However elevated hardness of the contact aggravates the impact effects by increasing the magnitude and decreasing the contact force duration.
