The theory of constraints is a system improvement approach that focuses on the way constraints limit the system performance. TOC adopts a cause-and-effect approach to problem solving to improve the ...
The properties of mechanical systems of rigid bodies subject to unilateral constraints are investigated. In particular, properties of interest for the digital simulation of the motion of such systems ...
