Figure 2 shows the initial impact angular velocity of the link ω 0 [rad/s] as a function of the initial impact angle θ [

]. The initial impact angular velocity is the angular
velocity at the beginning of the compression phase. For the next simulations, the following coefficients of friction are used μ k = 0.15 and μ s = 0.20. Figure 3 depicts
the coefficient of restitution defined as e = ω f /ω 0 as a function of the initial impact
angle θ where ω f is the final angular velocity at the end of the restitution phase. The
coefficient of restitution is decreasing with the initial impact angle. Figure 4 shows
the ration of the tangential velocities before and after impact v T x f /v T x0 as a function
of the initial impact angle θ . This ratio is increasing with the initial impact angle. The
permanent deformation during impact, δ r , as a function of impact angle is shown in
Fig. 5. For θ = 70
