Abstract

Nonlinear equations governing chaotic dynamics exhibited by a class of lumped mechanical systems with dry friction are analysed. It is shown that the obtained corresponding Melnikov's function can be simplified in some cases to yield analytical conditions for chaos occurrence. The analytical predictions are verified numerically.
