Simple and Multi-collision of an Ellipsoid with Planar Surfaces. Part I: Theory

Abstract

This paper discusses the problem of simultaneous collisions between an ellipsoid and some planar surfaces. The approach is one based on the theory of screws and uses the notion of inertance. The authors consider​ that the coefficients of restitution are different for each planar surface and they obtain the velocities after the collision. An example concludes the theory.
