Abstract
We discuss stability in the case of systems with unilateral contact and Coulomb friction. Classical stability results for dynamical systems concern perturbations of the initial data in a classical phase space. Here we establish results concerning the trajectories issued from a perturbation of the external forces. With such a notion of stability a conjecture is given that we back up in detail by analytical computations in the case of a simple model and that we begin to extend to more complex systems.
