“…From the perspective of engineering applications, some scholars have paid attention to vibro-impact bistable oscillators by considering the collision constraint, such as the vibro-impact inverted pendulum [3,4,5], the vibroimpact SD oscillator [6,7,8], etc. The basic idea of global vibro-impact dynamics is to extend the non-smooth Melnikov method, which was first proposed by Melnikov [9] and developed in Guckenheimer & Holmes [10] and Wiggins [11] for smooth dynamical systems and extended by Kunze [12], Shi et al [13], Battelli and Feckan [14,15,16,17], Tian et al [18,19,20], and Li et al [21,22,23,24,25,26,27] to non-smooth dynamical systems. In recent times, an increasing number of academics have developed a keen interest in these models.…”
