Abstract

It is well-known for vibro-impact systems that the existence of a periodic solution with a low-velocity impact (so-called grazing) may yield complex behavior of the solutions. In this paper we show that unstable periodic motions which pass near the delimiter without touching it may give birth to chaotic behavior of nearby solutions. We demonstrate that the number of impacts over a period of forcing varies in a small neighborhood of such periodic motions. This allows us to use the technique of symbolic dynamics. It is shown that chaos may be observed in a two-sided neighborhood of grazing and this bifurcation manifests at least two distinct ways to a complex behavior. In the second part of the paper we study the robustness of this phenomenon. Models of impact Particularly, we show that the same effect can be observed in “soft” models of impacts.
