Explore the exceptional dynamics in piecewise-smooth systems, focusing on chattering and grazing phenomena in impact oscillators. Study the interactions between periodic orbits, discontinuity sets, and bifurcations. Analyze the behavior of Poincare maps and observe transitions to periodic and non-impacting orbits. Discover the rich dynamics and applications of piecewise-smooth systems.

Observe grazing bifurcations identical to the dynamics of thetwo-dimensional square-root map Transition to a periodic orbit Non-impacting orbit Period-adding
Local analysis of a Poincare map associated with a grazing periodic orbit shows that this map has a locally square-root form, hence the observed period-adding and similar behaviour Poincare map associated with a grazing periodic orbit of a piecewise-smooth flow typically is smoother (eg. Locally order 3/2 or higher) giving more regular behaviour
CONCLUSIONS • Piecewise-smooth systems have interesting dynamics • Some (but not all) of this dynamics can be understood and analysed • Many applications and much still to be discovered

Why are we interested in them? • Lots of important physical systems are piecewise-smooth: bouncing balls, Newton’s cradle, friction, rattle, switching, control systems, DC-DC converters, gear boxes … • Piecewise-smooth systems have behaviour which is quite different from smooth systems and is induced by the discontinuity: period adding • Much of this behaviour can be analysed, and new forms of discontinuity induced bifurcations can be studied: border collisions, grazing bifurcations, corner collisions.
