Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hello,

see [1,2]

> and the impact energy dissipation?

You have (possibly constant) total energy Etot.
You can compute kinetic energy Ekin [3], elastic energy Eel [4], energy 
dissipated by friction [1,2]
The rest is other dissipation Eother.
Etot = Eel + Ekin + Efrict + Eother

Or you can use O.energy [5,6,7], where you can get other values if Law2 
implements it.
O.energy also stores artificial dissipation of newton integrator numerical 
damping.

You can compare both approaches :-)

> loss by inelastic collisions

Note that for your case (only Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack),
theoretically the only dissipation is only by friction and the numerical
damping of newton integrator (there are no true "inelastic collisions")

Cheers
