The binary collision approximation has been successfully applied to the study of pulse propagation in several types of granular chains. Here we present the theory in a generalized and comprehensive way and discuss and review a number of results found in the literature.

In this paper, both the fifth-order Runge–Kutta numerical scheme and binary collision approximation are used to study the phase shift. Both numerical and theoretical results are shown that the solitary wave after head-on collision propagates along the chain behind the reference wave in both even and odd numbers of grain chains. It is the well-known feature of the appearance of the phase shift. Those results are in agreement with the experimental results. Furthermore, it is found that the phase shift is not only related to the collision position of the waves, but also to the position where the time is measured. The value of phase shift increases nonmonotonously with increasing the velocity of the opposite propagation of the wave. Binary collision approximation is applied to analyze the phase shift, and it is found that theoretical results agree well with numerical results, especially in the case of phase shift in odd chain.
