This book’s identify, Nonsmooth Mechanics and Analysis, refers to an important area of mechanics, rather these initiated by way of the works of Jean Jacques Moreau. Nonsmooth mechanics issues mechanical events with attainable nondifferentiable relationships, finally discontinuous, as unilateral touch, dry friction, collisions, plasticity, harm, and part transition. the foundation of the process is composed in facing such difficulties with out resorting to any regularization method. certainly, the nonsmoothness is because of simplified mechanical modeling; a extra subtle version will require too huge a few variables, and occasionally the mechanical info isn't on hand through experimental investigations. for that reason, the mathematical formula turns into nonsmooth; regularizing may purely be a trick of mathematics with none actual justification.
Nonsmooth research was once built, in particular in Montpellier, to supply particular theoretical and numerical instruments to house nonsmoothness. it is vital not just in mechanics but additionally in physics, robotics, and economics.
