RESUMO

In general the motion of a body takes place in a confined environment and collision of the body with the containing wall is possible. To predict the dynamics of a body in this conditions one must know what happens in a collision. The problem is then: known the pre-collision dynamics of the body and the properties of the body and the wall one want to predict the post-collision dynamics. This problem is quite old and it appeared in the literature in 1968. Up to 1984 it seemed that Newton model was enough to solve the problem. But it was found that this was not the case and a renewed interest in the problem appeared. This thesis treats the problem of plan collisions of rigid bodies and tries to classify the differents models and to compare them. A new model is presented and old results are shown in a new framework.
