Piecewise linear $ \luz(\ldots)$ and $ \tar(\ldots)$ projections. Part 2 – Application in modelling of dynamic systems with freeplay and frictio

Dariusz Żardecki
The paper presents the idea and examples of application of a new method to the modelling of mechanical systems with freeplay and friction. This method bases on the piecewise linear $ {\rm luz}(\ldots)$ and $ {\rm tar}(\ldots)$ projections and their original mathematical apparatus. It is very useful for synthesis of simulation models and description of the stick-slip phenomenon in multi-body systems.
