The main purpose of this work is to provide a non-local approach to study aspects of structural stability of 3D Filippov systems. We introduce a notion of semi-local structural stability which detects when a piecewise smooth vector field is…
Systems that are not smooth can undergo bifurcations that are forbidden in smooth systems. We review some of the phenomena that can occur for piecewise-smooth, continuous maps and flows when a fixed point or an equilibrium collides with a…

Work on standard piecewise-smooth (PWS) dynamical systems, with codimension-1 discontinuity sets, relies on the Filippov framework, which does not always readily generalise to systems with higher codimension discontinuities. These higher…
