Nonsmooth Mechanics

1) f(x, t) 2: 0 where x E JRn is the system's state vector, u E JRm is the vector of inputs, and the function f (-, . 2) f(q, t) 2: 0 where q E JRn is the vector of generalized coordinates of the system and u is an in­ put (or controller) that generally involves a state feedback loop, i.
