Publisher's description (no review copy received: This significantly enlarged and expanded second edition [for the review of the first edition (1996) see Zbl 0861.73001)], focuses on nonsmooth finite dimensional mechanical systems, subject to unilateral constraints. It contains a complete overview of the main problems in the areas of mathematics, mechanics, stability and control, which are of interest in this field. The following topics are discussed in detail and are illustrated with examples: Short dynamics; Multiple impacts; Feedback control; Moreau's sweeping process; Complementary formulations. With a comprehensive bibliography of over a thousand references, this book is an indispensable source of information on the subject treated.
