Dynamics and bifurcations of non-smooth mechanical systems /

This monograph combines the knowledge of both the field of Nonlinear Dynamcis and Non-smooth Mechanics and presents a framework for a class of non-smooth mechanical systems using techniques from both fields. During the last decades, the Non-smooth Mechanics community has developed a formulation of n...
