“…Comparing materials, from a mechanical perspective and from the structural perspective; can there be a substitute for the English willow? Bat Vibration A special spot on a bat where the shot feels best-the fundamental vibration node and the centre of percussion Forces between Bat and Ball Force on the ball which has to slow it down to a complete stop, and then accelerate it back in the other direction Various modifications and designs have been developed using wood, aluminium and composite materials to improve the performance of baseball and cricket bats (Eftaxiopoulou, Narayanan, Dear, & Bull, 2011;Pang, Subic, & Takla, 2011;Shenoy, Smith, & Axtell, 2001;Smith, Shenoy, Axtell, & Sem, 2000;Sridharan, Rao, & Omkar, 2015). An alternate approach has been to modify the wooden bat with wooden side inserts, originally sourced from staves used in old wine barrels, developed by Ron Sears (Echuca Times, 2012) with a version being recently marketed (Slazenger, 2016).…”

“…The cricket bats supplied had a complex 3D geometry, with varying cross sections along the length of the blade. Pang et al (2011) developed an FE model investigating the strength of a Polycarbonate-foam sandwich against impact by a cricket ball. The methodology may be applied to any form of material used for bat construction and ball impact.…”

The aim of the current research project was to characterise the difference in the sweet spot of a standard and modified (bat with pre-stressed wooden inserts) cricket bat, as utilised by amateur batsmen facing amateur bowlers. The project was divided into three parts, experimental, analytical analysis and finite element modelling. An experimental bat and ball test apparatus was developed to measure the difference in performance of a cricket bat with and without modifications. The outcomes of this work showed that the addition of a specified insert in the sides of a cricket bat can significantly improve a cricket bat's performance. The potential to use this type of insert could be employed in any design of bat to improve its performance without any additional modifications to the profile of the existing layout.

“…As the research continued, beam models are widely adopted to consider the effects of higher order modes 16,17 and many researchers also adopted beam model to simulate the beam-stop impact responses. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Bureau et al 18 proposed an experimental method with feedback control which can analyze the nonlinear bifurcation characteristics of a vibro-impact system, and the typical nonlinear dynamic phenomena like coexisting stable and unstable solution were observed in the experimental results. The impact characteristics between steel ball and cantilever beam were analyzed through finite element and experimental methods in Pang et al 19 and Qin and Yin.…”

A finite element model of shrouded blades is established to analyze the vibration responses due to the impact between adjacent blades. In the finite element model, the blade and the shroud are simulated using beam element and lumped mass, respectively. On the basis of the finite element model, a beam-beam impact model is developed to study the vibroimpact responses of shrouded blades. By comparing the natural frequencies and vibration responses, the finite element model is verified by an analytical model. In addition, a test rig is also set up to compare the results obtained from simulation and experiment, and the influences of different parameters such as shroud gap, excitation amplitude, and excitation frequency on the vibro-impact response are analyzed by finite element model and experiment. The results obtained from finite element model and experimental model indicate that the impacts between adjacent shrouded blades weaken with the increase of the shroud gaps and excitation frequency, and the vibro-impact responses between shrouded blades become strong with the increasing excitation amplitude. The results also show that the secondorder flexural vibration of blade is easier to be excited and the super-harmonic resonance phenomenon closed to the second-order flexural natural frequency is more significant than that at other flexural natural frequencies.The reason is that the position of the external force applied on shrouded blade accords with its second-order flexural vibration mode.

The present study focuses on an impact phenomenon of two spheres and its rebound property. The collision of two spheres is a fundamental problem with impact phenomenon. The coefficient of restitution characterizes the property of impact phenomenon and has been estimated in general by experiment. In addition, it has been tried to estimate the coefficient by analytical and numerical methods. Considering body deformation, the body is deflected rapidly in collision and the strain rate occurred in the body is significantly high. It is well known the yield stress of the specific industrial material depends on the strain rate. However, it has not been proved the relationship between the coefficient of restitution and the strain rate in details yet. The present paper discusses the coefficient of restitution in low velocity impact of two equivalent balls. The impact experiments were conducted for the balls with different diameters by a pendulum impact apparatus. And the balls are numerically analyzed based on the finite element method considering the dependence of yield stress on strain rate as the material property of the balls. In conclusion, the strain rate decreases with the increment of the ball diameter and, it causes the coefficient of restitution to decrease.
