In particular, period one behavior is studied near grazing points corresponding to tangential contact with the discontinuity surface used to initiate capillary interactions in a tapping mode AFM model. Two different discontinuity mapping analysis methods are developed and applied to this AFM model. The discontinuity mapping analysis predicts the existence of a branch of period one solutions emanating from the grazing point. In addition, the analysis predicts that one eigenvalue of a suitable Poincaré map approaches minus infinity as the varied parameter approaches its grazing value. The second, more general, method is then applied to a model of cell cycle mitosis at two grazing points corresponding to trajectories that have tangential contact with the discontinuity surface used to trigger a halving of the cell mass. Again, the analysis predicts a branch of period one solutions emanating from the grazing point, and an eigenvalue whose magnitude grows without bounds as the grazing point is approached in parameter space. In the case of both the AFM model and the cell cycle model, predictions produced using the discontinuity mapping analysis are shown to agree with results produced using numerical continuation. In addition, we remark on the limitations of the discontinuity mapping analysis and provide suggestions for future work.
