Preface to VSI: Advances in nonsmooth dynamics

Other text in scientific journal, 2023

This Special Issue on nonsmooth dynamics brings together recent developments in nonsmooth dynamics, from applications in control engineering and mechanics, economics, climate modelling, physiological modelling, medicine, ecology and epidemiology, and others, to theory of novel forms of unpredictability and nonlinearity, chaos and bifurcations, and the study of higher dimensions.
