To extend previously analyzed models to new ones including distributions, differential equations with piecewise continuous right hand side, and memory effects by use of fractional derivatives; to apply nonsmooth analysis in problem posing and problem solving, dealing with motion in the presence of collisions and dry friction; to get basic knowledge on stability issues related to motion of mechanical systems; to deal with rigid body with fractional viscoelastic layer in the presence of dry friction and simulate its behaviour by use of combinatorial analysis.

Ability to predict different motion scripts by use of models given in form of integro-differential inclusion; understanding and usage of notions belonging to non-smooth analysis and fractional calculus in the framework of problem posing and problem solving; system identification of model parameters based on rheological experiments by use of MathCad and Mathematica with applications of the obtained results in the structural analysis; possibility to practice individually, work hard, think creatively, communicate with other engineers, show understanding and skills, and apply the collected knowledge to simulations, predictions of mechanical systems behaviour in time domain, as well as to stability analysis of both equilibrium and steady states.

Multifunctions (set-valued functions) and the Coulomb dry friction model. Dual nature of friction force in mechanics. Dual nature of friction force in mathematics. Differential inclusions. The Filippov theorem. Motion of a rigid body with fractional viscoelastic layer, the Cauchy problems given in form of integro-differential inclusion as models of motion: impact and forced oscillations of mechanical systems. Generalized derivative and generalized differential. The Hertz-Signorini-Moreau law of normal contact. Linear complementarity problems. Non-smooth potentials and the Frémon approach in collision mechanics. Numerical integration for dynamical systems with unilateral constraints: slack variable, application of the Laplace transform to differential equations with discontinuous right hand side. Examples: prismatic jount between two segments of robot manipulator, collision of two balls in the presence of adhesion, combinatorial analysis for impact of two bodies, reconstruction of three phases of motion in vehicle accidents, ABS braking system. The augmented Lagrangian method. Basic stability theory. The Lyapunov function. The Lyapunov theorems. First approximation and the Routh-Hurwitz criterion.

Lectures, presentations of real problems, exercises comprising Mathematica and Matlab tools. Homeworks chosen to check understanding of the introduced both notions and methods. Exam is either classical or given in form of a seminar work where the introduced tools are to be recognized at a chosen paper from recent IEEE Conferences on Robotic and Automation. The latter is to be done through individual work with each student separately. The exam ends with informal talk on introduced notions and methods.
