The coefficient of restitution (COR), also denoted by (e), is the ratio of the final to initial relative velocity between two objects after they collide. It normally ranges from 0 to 1 where 1 would be a perfectly elastic collision. The coefficient of restitution depends to a large extent on the nature of the two materials of which the colliding objects are made. It is also affected by the impact velocity, the shape and size of the colliding objects, the location on the colliding objects at which the collision occurs, and their temperatures.
