Impact Analysis of a Golf Ball

Application ID: 89461


In this example, the mechanical impact of a golf club striking a golf ball is studied. The contact between the two parts is modeled using a viscous penalty formulation to stabilize the dynamic event. To account for the large deformation, the golf ball is modeled using a hyperelastic material model. The core material is viscoelastic, which causes some of the elastic energy generated by the impact to dissipate.

The simulation results are compared with typical golf metrics, such as ball speed and spin rate.
