Dissipation-assisted stabilization of periodic orbits via actuated exterior impacts in hybrid mechanical systems with symmetry
William Clark, Leonardo Colombo, Anthony Bloch
Impulsive mechanical systems exhibit discontinuous jumps in their state, and when such jumps are triggered by spatial events, the geometry of the impact surface carries information…
