I want to calculate the acceleration of the collision of the ball and the plate. But Comsol simulates them individually and collision does not occur (the ball flies through the plate as if it does not exist). I tried using Multibody Dynamics and Solid Mechanics, but nothing happens. How can I simulate it?

Hi,

I am trying similar kind of simulation. Actually, I am focusing on acceleration as well as spin with which my slider has to move. But it is not running. Can you please share your file here?

Thanks in advance,
