Abstract
This paper presents an impact model of robotic manipulators subject to changing topology using the notion of linear projection operators. An oblique projection matrix is introduced in order to directly obtain: i) The acceleration of the constrained robotic system from unconstrained acceleration, ii) post-impact velocity of the robot from pre-impact velocity, and iii) impulse force during impact from pre-impact momentum. All solutions are provided in closed-form with elegant geometrical interpretations, e.g., the energy lost during contact is a quadratic function of pre-impact velocities. Moreover, the formulation seemingly works not only when the unilateral constraints remain active through a finite time interval but when changing topology occurs, i.e., unilateral constraints becomes inactive or vice versa, or even when the overall constraint jacobian becomes singular. The formulation is general enough to be applicable to robotic manipulators with chain, tree and close-loop topologies, or to handle simultaneous multiple contacts with non-identical restitution coefficients. The model is proven to be energetically consistent if a global restitution coefficient bounded between zero and one is assumed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
