This book discusses emerging topics in the area of nonsmooth dynamics research, such as numerical methods for nonsmooth systems, impact laws for multi-collisions, nonlinear vibrations and control of nonsmooth systems. It documents original work of researchers at the European Network for Non Smooth Dynamics (ENNSD), which provides a cooperation platform for researchers in the field and promotes research focused on nonsmooth dynamics and its applications. Since the establishment of the network in 2012, six ENNSD symposia have been organized at different European locations. The network brings together 40 specialists from 9 different countries in and outside Europe and a wealth of scientific knowledge has been gathered and developed by this group of experts in recent years.
The book is of interest to both new and experienced researchers in the field of nonsmooth dynamics. Each chapter is written in such a way as to provide an introduction to the topic for researchers from other fields.
