Non-smooth systems (namely piecewise-smooth systems) have received much attention in the last decade. Many contributions in this area show that theory and applications (to electronic circuits, mechanical systems, …) are relevant to problems in science and engineering. Specially, new bifurcations have been reported in the literature, and this was the topic of this minisymposium. Thus both bifurcation theory and its applications were included. Several contributions from different fields show that non-smooth bifurcations are a hot topic in research. Thus in this paper the reader can find contributions from electronics, energy markets and population dynamics. Also, a carefully-written specific algebraic software tool is presented.
► Computation of periodic discrete orbits with arbitrary period. ► Extension of some results on the ZIP bifurcation introduced by Farkas. ► Bifurcations of linear systems with saturations. ► Non-smooth bifurcations on amodel of energy markets.
