A brief survey of theoretical and practical applications of the complementarity principle in multibody systems with many multiple unilateral contacts is presented. Considered in a straightforward manner such systems involve a combinatorial problem of many dimensions, which can only be solved reasona

Mechanical systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom, subject to one or more unilateral geometric constraints, are considered. Apart from the main forms of motion--flying, supported motion and non-degenerate collisions---such systems also show more complex, discontinuous motions, including
Derivations and formulations are given of the variational principles of analytical mechanics for systems with unilateral ideal smooth constraints, originally established for systems with bilateral constraints. The virtual work principle, the Fourier inequality, the d'Alembert-Lagrange principle, the
